MAZE.TXT
Daedalus' Labyrinth
A 3-D Maze Game
In the September, 1988 issue of Scientific American, A. K.
Dewdney discusses three dimensional mazes and presents a 3-D maze
based on the legend of Daedalus' Labyrinth. The discussion of
three dimensional mazes is fascinating and inspired me to create
a computer version of the maze using the HyperDraw capability of
PC-KEY-DRAW.
MAZE.ARC contains a number of screen files for PC-KEY-DRAW, Ver
sion 3.50 or later, that form a 3-D maze. You can move through
the various levels of the maze by moving the cursor with a key
board, mouse, or joystick and clicking to go up or down in the
maze to another level. A map of the entire level is available by
clicking outside of an up or down button. A thread back to the
surface is provided by the <Back Space> command.
To use the maze start by creating a subdirectory on your hard
disk. Copy MAZE.COM into the subdirectory, about 800K will be
needed. Run MAZE.COM and it will create the screens that will be
needed. Run PC-KEY-DRAW, Version 3.5 or later. Set "Drive for
Completed Drawings" as the drive and subdirectory that contains
the unarced files of MAZE.COM by using the Status Screen
<Ctrl-s>. Load the first screen using <F8 o START(Cr) y>, where
(Cr) stands for <ENTER> or <Return>. Follow on screen instruc
tions. Click on START.
To learn more about this and other three dimensional mazes, check
out Scientific American, Computer Recreations, September, 1988.
Enjoy the maze and PC-KEY-DRAW. Good luck in finding a solution.
Your comments and suggestions are welcome.
