Leave a Review Maze Machina
The joy of struggling
I “hate” this game almost as much as I love it. Learning it takes a while—figuring out what every weapon does and how they might interact requires many painful deaths. But when it clicks, it’s a beautiful thing.
I’ve made elegant moves that get me through a level in 5 or 6 steps. I’ve managed to move the key and myself to the exit at the same time. I’ve had fantastic runs that could land me near the top of the global leaderboard ...
... and I’ve watched all of those things fall apart because the key got blown up, or cursed, or I accidentally teleported onto a bomb, or I got stuck and starved to death, or any number of other frustrating finishes.
But, almost every time that’s happened, I’ve reacted the same way: by starting another run. And that statement hopefully tells you all you need to know about how great this game really is.Show lessgeigerm
So awesome
Not as approachable as Card Crawl or Miracle Merchant but still some of the best strategy fun you can have! Only gripe is that you can get yourself into some impossible-to-escape situations, I think a check, checkmate system would fix that though, as always the game’s aesthetic is amazing, it’s still awesome to be in this same fantasy world (one of my favorite parts of his games) Definitely get this, it’s well worth the moneyShow lessbig apple blues
G.O.A.T.
Arnold Rauers, in my mind, is the greatest developer of all-time for card strategy games. The amount of thought and effort are always evident in his work. Every game he makes is excellent and they all seem to belong together. For me, Maze Machina has solidified his greatness. I don’t think Arnold Rauers is capable of making a game that is not excellent.Show lessAmesMoore
Complex but easy to pick up
There’s a lot going on here but it’s quickly starting to make sense. Controls are perfectly suited to mobile and the gameplay loop is very satisfying!JRJulius
Best game in a long time!
This is one of the best designed games I’ve ever played. I liked Threes but got bored with numbers. Imbroglio was confusing and frustrating to me. This game combines the best elements of both. The entire play experience is incredible. And with different modes, it’s accessible for casual players but challenging for experienced ones. Thank you for thinking of different kinds of players! I’m a casual gamer and this is perfect for me!
This developer makes great games, and this may be my new favorite of his. And with such a fair premium price and no IAPs, this is a great buy. And he always keeps his games updated so they function well over time. Thank you for a great game, developer! We need more developers like this out there. This is honestly one of my favorite gaming experiences.Show lessWRS15743
