About this board game

Maze Racers is a creative maze-building and racing game for 2–4 players that plays in about 20 minutes. Using the enclosed magnetic walls, players construct a challenging maze designed to leave an opponent scrambling to find the way out.

Each round combines imagination with a race against time. While one maze takes shape, an opponent is building a devilish contraption of their own. The goal is not simply to create a maze, but to make it as wicked and difficult to navigate as possible.

  • Build a maze with the enclosed magnetic walls.
  • Race against time while your opponent creates their own design.
  • Switch maze boards when time is up.
  • Steer a ball through the opponent’s maze as quickly as possible.

Once the building period ends, both sides exchange their maze boards. The creative challenge then becomes a test of speed and navigation as each player guides a ball through the other maze. Every round turns the designs into a head-to-head race, with the fastest run making the difference.

Victory in Maze Racers goes to the player who is fastest in two out of three rounds. With its combination of hands-on construction, time pressure, and quick maze runs, the game creates a compact contest in which every magnetic wall can shape the route to victory.

Released in 2015, Maze Racers is built around a clear cycle: create a maze, exchange it, and race through it. It offers a focused tabletop challenge for groups of 2–4 players.
