11 itemsAbout the Game
OctoMaze is a puzzle-arcade adventure where you control Aristotle’s tentacle—not the octopus himself. Stretch it through compact mazes, plan each route carefully, collect items, avoid lasers and enemies, and discover unusual solutions. What looks simple becomes surprisingly tricky when one wrong move can put your tentacle in danger.
TRY THE FREE DEMO
Play 15 levels for free and see whether you can master Aristotle’s tentacle. The full game includes 90 main levels across 6 locations, plus 70+ bonus levels and increasingly tricky puzzle challenges.
WHY OCTOMAZE IS DIFFERENT
• Control a tentacle, not the character: every move changes the puzzle.
• Plan safe routes through mazes filled with lasers, enemies, traps, sand, teleporters, drills, and other surprises.
• Find your own solutions: some challenges can be approached in more than one way.
• Explore six very different locations, from forests and junkyards to the ocean, laboratory, and space.
• Face 90 main levels, 70+ bonus levels, and increasingly demanding “Nightmare” challenges.
Inspired by the spirit of classic arcade and puzzle games, OctoMaze combines familiar ideas into a puzzle experience built around one unusual mechanic: Aristotle’s tentacle.
THE STORY
Aristotle is searching for priceless artifacts stolen by parasitic invaders. Guide his tentacle through dangerous worlds, overcome traps and enemies, and recover the collection one carefully planned route at a time.
