Object: Eliminate at least one type (=size) of tiles. To start the game, click on the board to drop your token. From then on, click where you want to go. An AREA MAZE or A-MAZE for short is a maze where you step from tile to tile, observing carefully the area of the tile you are standing on. The relative size of the area has to alternate: larger, smaller, larger, smaller, etc. So if you go from one tile to an adjacent tile with a larger area, then the next step has to be to an adjacent smaller tile. In this game the tiles consist of diamonds, circles and squares. The small diamonds have a smaller area than the small circles, and so on. There are five types (= area sizes) altogether. You can go orthogonally or diagonally one step at a time. The tiles you stepped on disappear. You win when you have eliminated one type of tile (e.g. when there are no large squares anymore). Variants 1 - 6: different board sizes, 5x5 to 15x15. Variants 7 - 12: like variants 1 - 6, but with only 4 sizes of tiles. Variants 13 -18: like variants 1 - 6, but with only 3 sizes of tiles.
