[[File:The_Maze.jpg|thumb|The third level in The Maze.]]
'''[[The Maze]]''', more commonly known as the '''Scary Maze Game''', is a Flash game created in October 2004. It was made by game developer [[Jeremy Winterrowd]].


This Flash prank disguises itself as a simple maze game in which the player has to utilize their mouse cursor in order to move a blue little 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 4 levels, and the player cannot touch the walls; however, there are actually only three levels in the game. The game also explains that it is best with volume on, but, there is no sound in any part of the game except for the very secret level 4!

The first two levels are easy to complete. But as the third level is reached, the walls begin to shrink and have sharp turns, making it difficult to avoid touching them. This usually makes the player concentrate on the screen. Then, near the first curve to the left of the maze sharp part, a picture of [[Regan MacNeil]] from the 1973's classic horror movie ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Exorcist_(film) The Exorcist]'' pops up along with two loud screams, scaring the user.

Featured Article

The original, unedited version of the Where's Waldo? image where Waldo is circled out in Microsoft Paint. In the screamer version, half of Waldo's upper body is edited out, leaving only his legs visible behind the old lady.

Where's Waldo? is an old screamer animation based on the British book series Where's Waldo, and has similarities to What's Wrong?. The animation was originally uploaded to Newgrounds by the user PimpMasterKDOG (or called by his short pseudonym, KDOG) on Dec 16th, 2001.

The original begins with the main menu and a start button. The gameplay involves finding Waldo in a crowd of people, as seen in the PC game Where's Waldo at the Circus.

How Do I Start?

If you need help getting started, do not worry. There are plenty of helpful articles and guides available on the Help Portal. You can help by creating new articles, adding information to pages, or fixing stubs and cleanup pages. If you're not sure what to edit, you can click Random page under Navigation on the side of the page and help fix information/grammar on any random page. If you want, you can also refer to the Quick Links section at the top to know where to start.


To add a new page, search for the name of the page you want to make in the search bar; if the page does not already exist, there will be a prompt allowing you to create the page. Give the page the same name as the screamer, for example ScaryScreamer.com. You are now ready to write your page!


You can also help Screamer Wiki by saving already existing screamers, shock sites, and videos to the Internet Archive (https://web.archive.org/save). If a screamer or shock site gets deleted, banned, or removed, then it can still be viewed on the Wayback Machine.

If you really want to help, then get familiar with IPFS and archive screamers on IPFS, plus pin them to make sure future generations can watch them!

If you want to open Flash files after the shutdown, use Ruffle. You may additionally also use Flashpoint, allowing for further accuracy.
