Medium maze
Medium is the desk default: not a postcard Easy, not a spiteful Hard. This URL locks that preset so a medium maze search lands on the real footprint instead of a slider rumor.
Easy warms up. Hard and Impossible wait when polite corridors get boring.
When
When to use
Use this page when you specifically want the medium difficulty grid, or when Easy felt short and Hard still feels rude.
When not
When not to
Absolute beginner → Easy. You came for a giant board → large-maze or Impossible.
Defaults
Assumptions
Difficulty locked to Medium (15×15). Perfect maze. Other presets live on their own URLs.
Steps
How
- Land on the Medium carve.
- Walk.
- New maze keeps Medium. Leave for Easy/Hard/Impossible URLs to change density.
Worked notes
Examples
- Home felt right; you just wanted the word “medium” in the URL → this page locks the preset
- Teaching someone: start Easy, graduate here, then Hard → honest ladder of sizes
Watch-outs
Gotchas
- Medium on this site is a size/preset, not a personality test.
- Magic volume for “medium maze” is thin — the page exists so the product ladder is honest.
- Generator can still go bigger or smaller with knobs.
