About Ultimaze

Ultimaze is a tile-based puzzle game about navigating small labyrinths.

Move around and interact with objects to reach the goal in 200 single-screen levels that steadily introduce new gameplay features. As the focus is puzzle solving, you can undo your moves at will.

The game isn't based around a single gimmick, but rather features a wide variety of different tiles and game mechanics that mix together to create varied puzzles to solve.

Some of the game mechanics include:
  • Pressing switches to alter tiles
  • Carrying and utilizing items
  • Pushing crates
  • Sliding on ice
  • Traversing lava in various ways
  • Using magnets to push and pull tiles
  • Jumping from springboards

Some of the later levels feature increasingly odd and advanced scenarios:
  • Manipulating a turn timer that alters objects after ticking down to zero
  • Moving around diagonally temporarily
  • Carrying an extended amount of items and duplicating them
  • Destroying yourself by moving into an infinite loop to respawn to a spawnpoint
  • Creating and loading save states of a level to your advantage

Ultimaze also contains a simple level editor tool and a block guide that contains a tutorial levels for each tile type.

✦ AI summary

Players praise Ultimaze as a well-designed puzzle game with 200 clever, varied levels that evoke classic DOS-era puzzle games, featuring diverse mechanics (portals, magnets, ice, bombs, etc.) and helpful features like skip buttons and undo functionality. The main appeal is its cerebral, bite-sized puzzles that fit on a single screen, making it an easy recommendation for puzzle enthusiasts at its affordable price point.

[b]ultimaze[/b] is a simple-looking puzzler with [b]200 labyrinthine levels[/b] and a ton of different mechanics (portals, keys, switches, disappearing tiles, block-pushing, magnets, springs, ice, bombs, etc.). levels are unlocked one by one, but there's a [b]skip level button[/b], so you can keep progressing if you get stuck on one. skipped levels weren't marked initially, so after a while it was problematic to remember what you hadn't actually solved, but a patch eventually took care of it. [b]no move limit or timer[/b] on the levels, but there are [b]a few timing-based mechanics[/b] and a time limit can be set on custom levels in the editor, so I guess it's possible that some regular levels also have a timer (didn't try them all). [b]undo works from a fail state[/b], so if you happen to step on the wrong thing, no problem. [b]you can only carry one item[/b] for the most part (there's an item that extends the inventory), stepping on another replaces the current one and whatever you're holding can also be dropped. controls aren't rebindable. wasd/arrows to move (can be held), space/shift to drop or activate an item, 'z' is undo (can also be held), 'r' is level reset, esc toggles…

Fiendishly Clever puzzles!

Ultimaze is a hidden gem of puzzle games. 200 puzzles and every puzzle is on one screen so you can take in all the information at once. There's a huge variety of game elements that come together in the puzzles which makes it a very cerebral experience. For the price, it's an easy recommend.
