How do I generate a maze with this tool?

Set the columns and rows sliders to the grid you want, say 15 by 15 for a quick puzzle or 30 by 30 for a real challenge, then press New maze. A random maze is carved instantly and shown in the preview. Adjust cell size or wall color and it redraws live. When you like it, hit Download .svg or Copy SVG. A 20 by 20 maze takes well under a second to build.

What is the recursive backtracker algorithm?

It is a classic maze-carving method, also called randomized depth-first search. Starting from the top-left cell it knocks down a wall to a random unvisited neighbour, moves there, and repeats; when it hits a dead end it backtracks until it finds a new branch. This tool uses it because it produces long, winding corridors and few short shortcuts, which feels satisfying to solve. A 25 by 25 grid carves 624 passages this way.

What does perfect maze mean here?

A perfect maze has exactly one path between any two cells, with no loops and no walled-off areas. Mathematically it is a spanning tree of the grid: for an N by M maze it removes exactly N times M minus 1 walls. That guarantees the entrance always connects to the exit and the solution route is unique, which is why the Show solution line is never ambiguous. A 10 by 10 perfect maze has 99 open passages.

How does Show solution work?

When you tick Show solution the tool runs a breadth-first search from the green entrance to the red exit and draws the route it finds as a single colored line over the maze. Since a perfect maze has only one possible path between those two points, that line is the answer. It is handy for printing an answer key alongside a worksheet, or for checking your own attempt once you give up.

Can I print these mazes for kids?

Yes, that is a main use. Pick a friendly size like 10 by 10 for younger kids or 20 by 20 for older ones, leave the wall color black for clean printing, turn off Show solution, and download the SVG. Open it in any browser and print at A4 or Letter; because it is vector it scales to fill the page without getting blurry. Print one with the solution on for yourself so you can help.

Does the maze get saved in the share link?

No. The share link stores your settings, the size, cell and wall sizes, colors, and whether the solution shows, but not the specific maze. Opening a shared link carves a brand new random maze at the same dimensions and style. If you need to keep one exact maze, download the SVG file; that captures it permanently. This keeps share links short and means each visitor gets a fresh puzzle.

Print a stack of mazes for a classroom

A teacher needs a quiet activity for thirty kids. Set the grid to 15 by 15, keep the walls black, turn off the solution, and download the SVG. Print thirty copies and you have a worksheet that scales cleanly to A4. Then carve a few more at 20 by 20 for the fast finishers, and print one copy of each with Show solution on so you can check answers at a glance.

Make a puzzle page for a kids activity book or newsletter

A content creator building a printable activity pack drops in a 12 by 12 maze for younger readers and a 25 by 25 for the challenge page. The vector SVG sits crisp next to the rest of the layout at any size, and a matching answer key page is one checkbox away. Recolor the walls to match the booklet's palette without leaving the tool.

Generate a unique maze for every game or escape room handout

Running a party game or escape room? Press New maze between each print and every player gets a different layout, so nobody copies a neighbour. Crank the size to 35 by 35 for an adults-only brain-burner, or keep it at 10 by 10 for a timed warm-up round. Each maze is freshly carved with crypto randomness, so they genuinely differ.

Build a maze asset for a craft, card or screen-printed project

A designer wants a maze graphic on a tote bag, a birthday card or a coloring page. Pick the proportions, thicken the walls so they survive printing, set the color, and export the SVG straight into Illustrator or Inkscape as editable vectors. No raster upscaling, no blur, just clean paths ready for the press.

What this tool does

A free maze generator that builds a fresh random maze every time and hands you a clean, printable SVG. Pick how many columns and rows you want from a tiny 5x5 up to a tough 40x40, set the cell size and wall thickness, choose the wall color, and the maze redraws live as you change anything. Every maze is a perfect maze: the recursive backtracker algorithm carves it as a spanning tree, so there is exactly one path between any two cells and no isolated rooms or loops. The entrance sits at the top left in green, the exit at the bottom right in red. Stuck or grading a worksheet? Turn on Show solution and a single colored line traces the one correct route from start to finish, found by a breadth-first search. Because the output is vector SVG, it stays razor sharp at any zoom and prints true on A4, Letter or a full poster. Copy the SVG markup to the clipboard or download the file. Everything runs in your browser with crypto-grade randomness, nothing is uploaded, and the share link reopens the same dimensions and look.

Real-world use cases

Print a stack of mazes for a classroom
A teacher needs a quiet activity for thirty kids. Set the grid to 15 by 15, keep the walls black, turn off the solution, and download the SVG. Print thirty copies and you have a worksheet that scales cleanly to A4. Then carve a few more at 20 by 20 for the fast finishers, and print one copy of each with Show solution on so you can check answers at a glance.
Make a puzzle page for a kids activity book or newsletter
A content creator building a printable activity pack drops in a 12 by 12 maze for younger readers and a 25 by 25 for the challenge page. The vector SVG sits crisp next to the rest of the layout at any size, and a matching answer key page is one checkbox away. Recolor the walls to match the booklet's palette without leaving the tool.
Generate a unique maze for every game or escape room handout
Running a party game or escape room? Press New maze between each print and every player gets a different layout, so nobody copies a neighbour. Crank the size to 35 by 35 for an adults-only brain-burner, or keep it at 10 by 10 for a timed warm-up round. Each maze is freshly carved with crypto randomness, so they genuinely differ.
Build a maze asset for a craft, card or screen-printed project
A designer wants a maze graphic on a tote bag, a birthday card or a coloring page. Pick the proportions, thicken the walls so they survive printing, set the color, and export the SVG straight into Illustrator or Inkscape as editable vectors. No raster upscaling, no blur, just clean paths ready for the press.

Common pitfalls

Printing with the solution still showing. The Show solution line is meant for an answer key, not the puzzle. Before downloading the version players will solve, untick Show solution. Print the solved version separately and label it as the answer sheet.
Setting the walls too thin for print. A 0.5px wall looks fine on screen but can disappear or break up on paper, especially at small cell sizes. For anything you will print, bump the wall thickness to 2px or more so the corridors stay legible.
Expecting the share link to reproduce the exact same maze. The link saves your size and style settings but carves a new random maze on open. If a specific maze matters, download the SVG file rather than sharing the URL, because only the file pins that one layout.

Privacy

Every step runs as plain JavaScript inside your browser tab: the maze carving, the solution search, and the SVG rendering all happen on your device. No maze, image or setting is ever uploaded, and there is no logging of what you generate. The randomness comes from the browser's Web Crypto API, so the mazes are genuinely unpredictable, not seeded on a server. The one thing that travels is the share link, which encodes your size and style options in the URL; it never contains a maze, so pasting it anywhere only reveals the dimensions you chose.
