"Can a Maze Be Thinky?" — FLEB's 40 Free Mazes and How One Extra Rule Transforms a Maze
One piece today: "Are mazes 'thinky'?", published by the puzzle outlet Thinky Games on September 24, 2026. Using FLEB's free 20 Small Mazes and the new 20 More, Somehow Even Smaller, Mazes, plus the long-running Clickmazes site, it asks how a plain maze becomes a real thinking puzzle. I also checked PC Gamer's write-up, the official Steam page and Clickmazes itself, and sorted out the design tricks that add a twist to a maze.
