Description

A Maze game probably inspired by Midway's arcade game 'Amazing Maze'. There are 4 maze typesbut the goal in each is to escape the maze before your opponent does. Each player controls a mouse presented on the screen by a red or blue dot.

The maze types:
1) Maze: A straight maze run.
2) Jailbreak: The maze is a grid with hidden passages.
3) Blind-man's-bluff: The maze is invisible and no walls can ever be seen.
4) Trailblazer: The maze is invisible but the mice leave a trail on their path.

A few extra game modes can be selected:
* Cat and Mouse: The computer controls a cat that chases the mice. There are 4 different speeds for the cat.
* Paranoia: Neither mouse can leave the maze until the other one is caught by the cat.
* Double Paranoia: There's no cat and neither mouse can leave the maze, allowing the players to practice or experiment play modes.
