2 of 7: I don't like mazes myself and found this one to be awkward to move around. (Tip: If you are exited earlier than you intend, be more careful where you position your mouse. Don't move it off of the Maze screen itself while moving around.)
3 of 7: The object is to reach a lightly colored floor square with a skull painted in the center.
4 of 7: There are several different screens you will pass through with differently colored walls. (Seniors will have a slightly more difficult maze than Juniors, but the objective is the same.)
5 of 7: There is a tiny map of the maze on your screen to help you, but it is a mirror image. Watch what happens when you walk left. The map shows that you took a right turn.
6 of 7: If you are having trouble, exit the maze screen and immediately go back in. You may find that the walls look different when you return to it.
7 of 7: The tile to find is in the Stone section. Just walk onto it to finish the maze.
