Do you remember those scary maze Flash games that popped up around 2003? The ones where you concentrated really hard on tracing an intricate pattern through a maze only to be scared by a screaming ghost, zombie, or ghoul?

Summary
A simple and super-casual game. Like a neon sign in the window of a pub, it promises more fun than it delivers
