School Maze Not as action-oriented as the more well-known School Daze, this is a primitive semigraphical adventure made in BASIC.

Your mission is to retrieve an important computer tape that has been lost somewhere in the school. You first find yourself represented by a small character on a map of the school, and must go to the entrance of the school office to get a pass, after which you are free to move from room to room.

Moving between rooms, while searching for clues, means pressing keys representing directions. Each room is illustrated using character block graphics, and some have special functions, such as the music room, where you can play notes on the keyboard, or the lunch room where you can eat. Moving around in the school without seeing the map can prove quite disorientating, since moving north and then south doesn't necessarily mean that you will end up in the same place.
