Sultan's Maze

About

You play as a treasure hunter inside a first-person maze filled with corridors and dead ends. Your goal is to grab as many jewels as you can while avoiding a single relentless ghost that chases you. The maze shifts slightly each time you play, keeping the layout fresh. Controls are basic but responsive for the hardware, relying on arrow keys to move and a button to collect items. The tension comes from balancing speed with caution, since backtracking to pick up missed loot risks running into the ghost again. Sultan's Maze stands out as a relic from early 80s gaming when simplicity meant precision. Despite its age, the core loop of exploration and evasion feels sharp, with no filler mechanics. It's a short experience but packs enough replay value to justify its spot in retro collections. The game's influence isn't well documented but it's often cited by modern maze designers for its clean approach to randomized layouts. Still playable on emulators, it offers a stripped-down challenge that doesn't overstay its welcome.
