Rules and strategy
How to play Glowmaze
Collect every dim spark in the maze while evading four shadow wraiths, then use flares to turn the hunt around.
Start playing
- Steer with arrows, WASD, or a swipe and plan a route through the remaining sparks.
- Avoid contact with active wraiths and learn how each hunting style approaches junctions.
- Collect a flare to become dangerous temporarily, then chase wraiths or clear a risky corridor.
Glowmaze strategy tips
- Leave yourself two exits when entering a crowded junction.
- Save nearby flares until wraiths gather or block the final cluster of sparks.
- Use surge on a planned straightaway; boosting blindly into a corner removes reaction time.
★ Featured Snake
The timeless classic — eat, grow, and don't bite your tail.
Aegis Down
Meteor shards are raining on the last six crystal domes. Detonate lingering flak bursts that chain through the swarm — ammo is scarce, shells take time to fly, and the sky only gets meaner.
Chromapede
Blast a winding chroma-worm apart before it overruns your prism garden — every hit blooms into a crystal that bends the swarm. Chain same-colour shots for big multipliers, and watch out for the weaver and dive-bombing gnats.
Hopline
Hop a plucky firefly through rushing beetle traffic and across a dark stream on drifting leaves to light all five lantern nests. Snag dragonflies and spark motes for bonus glow — but mind the crossing timer.
