Maze Chase
Eat the dots. Dodge the ghosts. Own the maze.
About Maze Chase
Maze Chase brings the golden age of arcades to your browser. Steer your hungry hero through a neon maze, gobbling every dot while ghosts hunt you down through the corridors. Grab a glowing power pellet and the hunters become the hunted — for a few precious seconds, you can chase the ghosts down for big bonus points. Clear the maze to advance to a faster level. Easy to play, hard to put down, and that ghost-chasing power trip never gets old.

Tips & strategy

- Leave yourself two exit routes whenever possible.
Frequently asked questions
Is Maze Chase like Pac-Man?
It's a loving tribute to the classic dot-munching maze genre, with smooth controls and modern visuals — free in your browser.
How long do power pellets last?
A few seconds — long enough to chase down a ghost or two if you're quick. The effect gets shorter on higher levels.
What happens when I clear the maze?
A new level starts with faster ghosts and shorter power-up time. How far can you go?
