A unique four-dimensional puzzle, but please do not expect to solve it easily. The game consists of rolling a golden sphere to each surface of a hypercube. This is done by touching a door to pass through which in turn rotates the tesseract four dimensionally and brings the sphere into a new room. Passing through a series of rooms strategically will put the sphere on the walls and ceilings of rooms it has previously been in. The goal is to reach every wall, floor and ceiling of every room.
4D Maze
Navigate intricate mazes by sliding a marker through interconnected pathways. The game visualizes three dimensions normally and uses color to represent the fourth, offering a unique spatial puzzle experience.
- Four-dimensional maze navigation
- Color-coded fourth dimension
- Intuitive slider controls
- Unique spatial puzzle mechanics

Drag the slider to the goal, following tubes that snake around in four dimensions. 4D Maze draws the first three dimensions in the usual way, while using color to represent the fourth dimension.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Tesseract! at 88% against 4D Maze's 33%. Tesseract! also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). 4D Maze's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and update cadence (every 7 months vs every 66 months). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
