'''The Maze''', also known as the '''Scary Maze Game''', is an infamous internet Flash [[screamer]] created in October 2004 by game developer and programmer [[Jeremy Winterrowd]], originally posted to his personal website "[[Winterrowd.com]]".


This Flash prank disguises itself as a simple maze game in which the player has to utilize their mouse cursor to move a small dot through the maze. At the start screen, there is a note informing the player that the objective of the game is to pass through all four levels, and the player cannot touch the walls; however, there are only three levels in the game. The game also explains that it is best with the volume on, but there's no sound in any part of the game.
