Entertainment and brain training may be considered as primary goals of maze application.
So called logic mazes are special mazes with specifically defined rules altering the usual way
of maze solving. This typically involves rules regarding step sequence constraints, moving
through some predefined checkpoints, etc.
In some countries (e.g. USA) there is a tradition to build life size mazes and promote
them as tourist attractions. Lists of life size mazes across the world can be found for instance
in the following sources: [10] – Life Size Mazes, [1], [16].
Another application of mazes can be found in the video game industry. Often there is a
demand for random creation of interior and/or exterior environment. For example in case
of creating an interior ground plan, maze cells can be mapped into rooms and maze paths
into doors
