About The ScreaMaze
The ScreaMaze challenges you to navigate procedurally generated mazes with nothing but your mouse, racing against the clock to reach the exit without touching a single wall. With progressive difficulty, unlimited procedural levels, and three different endings to unlock, it's a deceptively simple concept that tests your precision and nerve as you chase your best score.
Gameplay:
Take your mouse and try to reach the exit of the maze without touching walls and before the end of the timer.
Will you try to beat your best score if you lose?
Features:
- Very simple gameplay, you only need a mouse to play
- Unlimited playing time with the procedural maze generation
- Progressive difficulty
- Your score is saved for the next time
- Three different endings

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
The ScreaMaze is a procedurally generated maze game that successfully delivers spooky atmosphere and intense jumpscare moments, with players praising the engaging sound design and addictive score-attack gameplay that grows progressively more challenging. However, critics find it overly simplistic and dated, comparing it unfavorably to free browser games, with the retro visual filter doing little to enhance the shallow, unambitious experience.

A perfect maze game. Lovely spooky atmosphere & the procedurally generated mazes are kind of... addictive. Difficulty rises & time seemingly runs quicker the more we complete, with a jumpscare or two. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_5p5_A9aoGg9 found this helpful
"The ScreaMaze" is a simple, poorly made and unambitious maze game with procedurally generated mazes. More of a skill test, you need to avoid touching the walls and you need to solve each procgen maze within a time limit. The only motivation is score attack, which made me even more motivated to uninstall the game quickly. So this looks like an old 1990's Adobe Flash game that you might play in a web browser, and the problem there is obviously Steam wasn't intended to try compete with Chrome and Firefox. If it can be done in a web browser, it's not even close to a cutting edge PC gaming experience. That's a problem. The crappy retro filter makes an already poor looking game look even uglier. The technical execution of this game is shallow and simplistic, just enough to tick the boxes required to get something (anything) published on Steam, rather than investing the huge amount of effort and budget needed to create a fully fledged, comprehensive, high quality product. This feels like a tech demo more than a full game. This game features very lacklustre minimalist "art" for graphics instead of anything remotely contemporary. I'm sure the "developer" thought this would come a…1 found this helpful

Игра 'The ScreaMaze' - это короткий, но очень напряженный опыт. Смесь лабиринта от первого лица и хоррора здесь работает на отлично. Простота геймплея (найди выход, не попадись) обманчива, потому что атмосфера ужаса нагнетается постепенно и достигает пика моментально. Визуально игра выглядит приемлемо для своего жанра и бюджета. Темные коридоры и зернистость только усиливают эффект присутствия. Звук - это вообще отдельная похвала! Каждое скрипение, шепот и внезапный крик заставляют сердце колотиться как бешеное. Особенно впечатляет работа звукорежиссера в создании ощущения приближающейся опасности. Игра проходится достаточно быстро, что делает ее идеальной для короткой дозы адреналина. Однако, реиграбельность невысока, так как сюрпризы уже не будут такими пугающими после первого прохождения. В целом, 'The ScreaMaze' - это достойный представитель инди-хорроров. Если вы ищете короткую, но эффективную пугалку, чтобы проверить свои нервы на прочность - это ваш выбор. Рекомендую играть в наушниках и в полной темноте для максимального погружения. Не рекомендую слабонервным.
