Generate Your Maze Now
Use our free online Maze Generator to create text-based mazes up to 200x200 for games or puzzles. Powered by rot.js and SeedRandom, this tool creates perfect mazes with a single solvable path, displayed as ASCII art in your browser. Note: Large mazes (e.g., 200x200) may take longer to generate and render.
What is a Maze Generator?
A Maze Generator creates a solvable maze, typically represented as a grid with walls and paths. Our tool generates text-based mazes using ASCII characters ('#' for walls, ' ' for paths, 'S' for start, 'F' for finish), ideal for puzzles or games.
Powered by rot.js, it uses a recursive backtracking algorithm to ensure a perfect maze with one path from start to finish, with SeedRandom for reproducible results.
How Does the Maze Generator Work?
This free tool uses rot.js to create perfect mazes up to 200x200 via recursive backtracking. SeedRandom ensures reproducible mazes with the same seed, and Clipboard.js enables easy copying of the output. All processing occurs in the browser. Note: Very large mazes may take longer to generate and render.
Use Cases for Maze Generators

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About Maze Generators
What is a text-based maze?
A text-based maze is a grid represented with ASCII characters, where '#' denotes walls, ' ' denotes paths, 'S' is the start, and 'F' is the finish.
Can I generate the same maze again?
Yes, by entering the same seed, you can reproduce the exact same maze.
Are the mazes solvable?
Yes, the rot.js library ensures a single path exists from start to finish.
Can I generate large mazes?
Yes, you can generate mazes up to 200x200 cells, though very large mazes may take longer to generate and render in some browsers.
