Area Maze Race
Area Maze Race
Object: Walk the area maze as long as possible, in the process eliminating as many tiles as possible.
An area maze (or A-maze for short) is a maze in which one always steps onto a tile that shares an edge with the current tile and differs in area. The areas of consecutive tiles in one's path must alternately increase and decrease.
The board is filled with colored polysquares. You guide a golden token by clicking a colored tile. When you take a step, you can choose any cell in the polysquare into which you are stepping as your new location.
You can step on each polysquare only once. Used tiles disappear. You win when your path has the target length (fixed variants). A move counter and the target are displayed at the left border.
Variants with random setups: try to achieve a higher score (path length) than your friend.
