Oops, yeah, I got the name a bit wrong.

It's a computer game based on a popular puzzle book.  This book (which I
do own a copy of; it's not hard to obtain, and I think it's just titled
"Maze") is basically a book in the form of a maze.  It plays somewhat like
a Choose-Your-Own-adventure, with a picture on each page depicting exits
to other pages.

The computer game is playable online, which is one thing that baffles me
about the demand -- you can pretty clearly see the demand:supply ratio on
GameTZ, and it isn't exactly favorable for someone who wants a complete
IBM copy, like me.  I don't know enough about the game to classify it as
"adventure" or "puzzle" in my personal classification system, either (but
I collect both).
