THE MAZE
—
—
The shadow expanded until it consumed Ring —
of the maze. Using your knowledge of circles, can you calculate what
ring number the shadow stopped at — i.e. the radius — given its final area?
A = π · r²
Shadow area at game end: — ring-units²
π ≈ 3.14159 · Isolate r: r = √(A ÷ π)
—
Correct! The shadow radius was Ring —.
Area = π × —² ≈ — ring-units²
HOW TO PLAY
🕹️
Move
Use the joystick (bottom-left) to navigate the rings. On desktop use WASD or arrow keys. Tap-and-hold on the maze to pathfind.
✦
Collect Orbs
Find enough glowing orbs to match the shadow's ring radius. Each orb increases your mass, which slows time — helpful, but the shadow still grows. The target orb count is revealed by the shadow itself.
🌑
The Shadow
A dark shadow expands from the centre outward. It blurs maze walls inside it. When it reaches the limit ring, it's game over.
🏠
Escape
Once all orbs are collected, return to the lighthouse at the centre before the shadow closes in. The clock glows red as time runs low.
⏱️
Time Dilation
Each orb slows your clock. The TIME dial glows red when the shadow is close. Watch the minimap to track orb locations and shadow growth.
