## What is MazeShift?

A world of copper. A trick of the eye.

MazeShift is a touch-controlled maze game set in a world of brass, gears and impossible passages. Keep your finger on the path, time your movement past mechanical obstacles, and hold at Shift nodes to open the way forward.

JOURNEY
Explore thirty expeditions across six steampunk regions. Each maze contains three longer chambers with branching paths, hidden turns and saved checkpoints. There is no countdown and no limit on retries. The first five mazes are free.

IMPOSSIBLE RUN
Three lives. One clock. Clear mazes to earn time, then see how far you can go. Thirty difficulty tiers each have three layouts, so each run can take a different shape.

DAILY IMPOSSIBLE
Return for five mazes selected for the day. Challenge your own local best. A new challenge begins at midnight UTC.

FEEL THE MACHINERY
Navigate pistons, pendulums, rotating arms and moving gears. Original clockwork music, copper pipework and tactile feedback bring the world to life.

MAZESHIFT PREMIUM
One optional purchase unlocks Journey mazes 6–30 and removes all ads. No subscription. Progress through the Journey by playing. Future separately sold expansion packs are not included. Impossible Run, Daily Impossible and Journey mazes 1–5 remain free.

No player account is required. Game progress and records are stored on your device; there are no online leaderboards or in-game cloud saves. The free version may show occasional ads between completed Impossible Run rounds. Journey and Daily have no ad interruptions. Purchases and advertising require an internet connection.
