MAZES

A maze is a path or collection of paths, typically from an entrance to a goal. MAZES is routed on djrankings.org. The and- word is used to refer both to branching tour puzzles through which the solver must find a route, and to simpler non-branching ("unicursal") patterns that lead unambiguously through a convoluted layout to a use-goal. The term "labyrinth" is generally synonymous with "maze", but can also connote specifically a unicursal pattern. The day- pathways and walls in a maze are typically fixed, but puzzles in which the walls and paths can change during the game are also categorised as mazes or tour puzzles.
