\"\"<\/a>You are a futuristic soldier in a maze and you must find your way to the exit all the while shooting enemies and collecting helpful items.\u00a0 Maze Blaze is available on all current game consoles and PC, but reviewed on Switch here.<\/p>\n

The mazes are viewed in an isometric perspective.\u00a0 You must reach the glowing green goal in each maze to move onto the next.\u00a0 Along the way you\u2019ll come across items you can pick up with the A button.\u00a0 These include armor and guns with different bullet types, like ones that reflect off of walls.\u00a0 To shoot, just press the R2 button and aim with the L2 button.\u00a0 You can\u2019t move while aiming, though.\u00a0 If you lose all your energy, the game is over.\u00a0 There are two modes: Adventure and Endless, and you can play both in single player or co-op.<\/p>\n

I liked the TRON style neon graphics but that\u2019s about it.\u00a0 Aiming controls are too cumbersome and your guy moves like he ate a big breakfast that morning.\u00a0 I think this one would\u2019ve been more fun with twin stick shooter style controls.<\/p>\n

Maze Blaze is rated E-10 with ESRB descriptors of Fantasy Violence and Mild Blood.\u00a0 I didn\u2019t really notice any blood, but you do shoot robots and aliens that just fall over lifeless when defeated.\u00a0 Reading skill is helpful for the text, and younger gamers may have trouble with the controls and difficulty.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
