Slide block-to-block to collect all scattered coins
Coin Maze is a momentum-based puzzle where your character slides in a chosen direction until they hit a wall. Your goal is to navigate the maze to collect every coin in the fewest moves possible.
This game emphasizes pathing efficiency. Because you can only stop at obstacles, you must often use walls and corners as anchors to reach specific locations on the grid.
At the start of each level, the safe path, coin locations, and skull traps flash briefly. Study this carefully—it's your only chance to see the layout. Once the flash ends, the path becomes invisible and you must navigate from memory.
Use arrow keys or WASD to move. Movement is sliding-based: when you press a direction, you slide continuously in that direction until hitting a wall. You must collect every coin on the board to complete the level.
Scoring: Your score is based on completion time and lives remaining. Stepping off the safe path onto a skull trap costs you a life. Lose all lives and you must restart the level.
Test environment for Coin Maze.
Chunk the path into patterns. Trying to memorize twenty individual moves is difficult. Instead, group the path into recognizable shapes like "a Z-shape through the middle" or "an L-shape up the left side." Shape recognition is faster than sequence recall.
Use coins as memory anchors. Coins remain visible after the path disappears, making them perfect reference points. Memorize how the path connects between visible coins rather than trying to memorize the path through empty space.
Identify the critical decision points. The dangerous spots are intersections where you could go multiple directions. During the flash, focus extra attention on these turns: "At the third coin, I need to go UP, not right."
Practice the path mentally before moving. After the flash, take a moment to mentally rehearse the route before pressing any keys. Visualizing yourself moving through the path helps you catch mistakes before they cost a life.
