Review from Personal Computer World June 1983.
 MICRO MAZE Supplier Hi-Tech Price: £6.50 (unexpended Ace) Again the instructions are confused |
between upper and lower case, but once this is sorted out
loading is straightforward.
Micro Maze is a simple Pacman-style game. You roam the maze, eating as many
radioactive dots as you can, and keeping an eye open for the pursuing monsters.
If you manage to clear one maze of all the dots, the screen clears and you move onto
a higher level - with the monsters getting quicker, and much more likely to catch you.
That's all there is to it - there are four levels of skill and you automatically move
onto the next level as you clear the screen.

You also have a choice of three mazes, which are selected by typing either '0 0 BLOAD
screen2' or '0 0 BLOAD screen3'.
I found this game surprisingly enjoyable. Its best friends would hardly
call it sophisticated, and the graphics
are somewhat on the simple side but, given these limitations, it is surprisingly addictive. Certainly worth a
look if you own an unexpanded Jupiter Ace.
