Maze

Maze is a video game in the action genre developed by Acornsoft Limited and published by Acornsoft Limited originally released in 1984. It is currently playable on BBC Micro, Electron.

In Maze the player enters the premises of a rival company with the aim of stealing secret information. The building is very secure and is patrolled by robotic guards who shoot any intruder on sight.

As in other Maze games from the early 1980s, the game is played from a first-person perspective. You exit each level via an elevator that only opens when the player has access to a key. The key is found inside an indestructible iridium box that can only be opened if the player first locates three randomly placed identity tags and drops them into the box.

The player has access to a gun that can be used to kill robots (although new ones will take the place of the dead ones). However, the gun only has three bullets and to get more ammunition the player has to pass over special energy points that are marked by pentangles on the ground. In addition to the first-person perspective, there is also a top-down map view that shows everything the player has encountered, as well as the position of all robot guards (even if the player hasn't seen them).

It is possible that we have multiple downloads available when different versions exist.
