MAZE

n. labyrinth, confusing network of passages; complex arrangement of paths designed as a puzzle for those who try to penetrate, similar type of puzzle on paper; confusion, bewilderment

v. baffle, amaze, strike with wonder

A maze is a complex tour puzzle in the form of a complex branching passage through which the solver must find a route. This is different from a labyrinth, which (strictly speaking) has an unambiguous through-route and is not designed to be difficult to navigate (despite the common uses of the word to indicate various complex, confusing structures). The pathways and walls in a maze or labyrinth are fixed (pre-determined). Maze-type puzzles where the given walls and paths may change during the game are covered under the main puzzle category of tour puzzles.
