This digital illustration depicts a vast, intricate maze stretching across the entire frame, symbolizing complexity, problem-solving, and exploration. The labyrinth is composed of high, white walls with sharp geometric angles, casting subtle shadows that enhance its three-dimensional depth. The design features countless paths, dead ends, and sharp turns, evoking the challenge of navigation and the search for solutions within structured constraints. The perspective of the image fades into the distance, suggesting an endless expanse of corridors and choices, emphasizing the overwhelming nature of puzzles and decision-making processes. The cool blue and white color scheme creates a calm yet abstract atmosphere, reinforcing the idea of intellectual challenge rather than a physical or threatening environment. This maze can be interpreted as a metaphor for life’s obstacles, strategic thinking, or technical problem-solving, capturing both the frustration and fascination of navigating through complex systems.

Maze Generators

This is a collection of free online maze generators that I have created. They each include a description of the algorithm they use to generate a maze, allowing you to pick the one you like best - although they all generate valid mazes (that is, mazes that actually have a solution), the mazes they generate can differ quite a bit.

Maze generator using the Hunt and Kill algorithm to create a perfect maze. This algorithm is similar to the Recursive Backtracker, but tends to generate mazes with somewhat less long, winding corridors. Read more...

Eller's Algorithm Maze Generator
Published: February 7, 2025 at 4:27:34 PM UTC
Maze generator using Eller's algorithm to create a perfect maze. This algorithm is interesting as it only requires keeping the current row (not the entire maze) in memory, so it can be used to create very, very large mazes even on very limited systems. Read more...

Wilson's Algorithm Maze Generator

Maze generator using Wilson's algorithm to create a perfect maze. This algorithm generates all possible mazes of a given size with the same probability, so it can in theory generate mazes of many mixed layouts, but as there are more possible mazes with shorter corridors than longer, you will more often see those.
