Circuit Maze is a tower defense-style puzzle game developed by Patrik Windahl where you focus on designing the longest and most efficient maze. With 80 handcrafted levels, the goal is to use available resources to build the most optimized layout. The game eliminates combat, emphasizing strategic maze design instead.

In this relaxed puzzle game, creativity and careful planning are key to progressing through increasingly difficult levels. It challenges players to think critically about maze construction, offering a calm experience without any time pressure. Circuit Maze lets players take their time to find the perfect solution to each level.

Think ahead and plan your layout carefully

Circuit Maze features 80 unique levels, each designed to test your maze-building abilities. You are given a set of building blocks with different properties to create the most efficient maze possible. Each block must be used strategically to achieve the best result, which means you’ll need to think ahead and plan your layout carefully. The challenge lies in finding the optimal path that uses every block to its fullest potential.

The game offers a relaxing yet engaging experience, focusing purely on puzzle-solving without combat or stress. There are no timers or enemies, allowing you to immerse yourself in designing mazes. However, this laid-back approach may be too slow-paced for some players, potentially making it feel monotonous or lacking excitement. While it’s accessible to casual gamers, those seeking faster-paced action might find the game lacking in intensity.

Steam achievements add fun for those who enjoy tracking progress, unlocking rewards as you complete the 80 levels. However, once all levels are finished, the game suffers from limited replayability, making it difficult to stay engaged. While achievements provide some motivation, the lack of new challenges can leave players feeling like there’s little incentive to revisit earlier levels after completing the game.
