Maze Runner - Rats on the run
Action
Free
Two rats, one wedge of cheese, one maze. Outrun the computer or a friend through endless procedurally generated mazes — first to 9 rounds wins!
Grab the cheese before the other rat does!
Maze Runner: Rats on the Run is a fast, retro arcade maze chase inspired by the Atari classic Maze Craze. A red rat and a blue rat race through a fresh, hand-free maze every round, scrambling for the wedge of cheese at the exit. Every maze is procedurally generated and guaranteed solvable, so no two rounds ever play the same — and both racers always start neck and neck for a scrupulously fair sprint.
Take on a relentless computer opponent solo, or grab a friend for local head-to-head versus on the same Mac. First rat to 9 rounds takes the match.
