Use Maze Generator to make black-and-white maze worksheets in your browser. Learners follow the passages from S (Start) to F (Finish). No sign-in or upload is needed.

1. Choose the maze shape and size

Open Maze settings. Enter a Worksheet title, then set Shape to Rectangle, Circle, Triangle or Hexagon.

Choose Grid size: 11 × 11, 19 × 19, 29 × 29 or 39 × 39. A larger grid generally provides more space for a longer route and a more detailed maze.

2. Set difficulty and start/finish direction

Choose Difficulty:

  • Easy · fewer dead ends adds more connecting passages, leaving fewer dead ends.
  • Medium provides an intermediate number of dead ends.
  • Hard · more dead ends retains more dead ends.

These settings change maze structure; they are not measured learning levels. Under Start & finish, choose Left to right or Top to bottom. The generator puts S and F at the corresponding openings on the maze boundary.

3. Reuse a seed or create a new maze

The Seed · repeat a favourite field contains an editable code. Keep that seed and the same shape, grid size, difficulty and start/finish settings to reproduce a maze with the same app version. Letter case and spaces in the seed matter. A seed is not a saved worksheet or a password.

Select New random seed when you want a different puzzle. You can also type your own seed, such as kelas-3-labirin, and then select Generate mazes.

4. Choose the sheet layout and generate

Set Mazes per sheet to 1, 2 or 4. Choose Paper (A4 or US Letter) and Orientation (Portrait or Landscape). Turn Include solution page on if you want a matching answer sheet.

Select Generate mazes to apply changes to the maze settings, title or seed. When you choose several mazes, the app uses related seeds with :2, :3 and :4 appended for the additional mazes.

Check Your worksheet. The puzzles are black-and-white, and each has a clear start and finish. The optional solution page shows the same maze walls with the correct path marked by a dashed black line. Changing paper size, orientation or the solution checkbox updates the existing preview without generating a different maze.

5. Print or save as a PDF

Select Print / Save PDF. In your browser's print dialog, match the paper size and orientation to the generator. Check the preview, preferably use 100% scale, and disable browser-added headers and footers if they appear.

With solutions enabled, the puzzle sheet and matching solution sheet print as separate pages. To keep a digital copy, choose Save as PDF or an equivalent destination in your browser.

Helpful reminders

  • If a maze is too simple, try a larger grid or a harder setting; if it is too difficult, try a smaller grid or Easy.
  • A new seed changes the maze. To repeat an earlier maze, restore its exact seed and settings; versions of different apps, including AZ Maze Buddies, do not necessarily create the same pattern.
  • This is a regular website, not an offline app. Maze settings are processed in your browser without an account or upload. Save the PDF if you want to keep the worksheet.
