Overview
Amazing is a single-player maze game where the player moves a marker across a grid from the upper-left corner to the goal in the lower-right. The maze is formed by scattered barrier squares; touching a barrier penalizes the player and can cost a marker. Movement is controlled with the numeric keypad, and the keys auto-repeat when held.
A compass display shows which keys move the marker in each direction. At intervals, the game whistles and the compass briefly flashes “CHANGE” before the directions are rotated by 90, 180, or 270 degrees. At higher ranks, the compass information is gradually reduced: first only diagonals and a rotation degree are shown, and eventually only the rotation value appears, with no warning whistle before changes.
Each maze is timed. Reaching the goal advances the level; failing to finish in time or hitting a barrier ends the round and moves the player back one level while keeping the current rank. Completing eight mazes in succession promotes the player to the next rank, and finishing rank three wins the game. The Regular Amazing mode offers Easier and Harder variants that differ mainly in the time allowed per maze. Expert Amazing adds moving barriers, variable starting and goal corners, and more complex compass behavior across its difficulty settings.
Games can be saved at any point and later resumed from the main menu, and high scores are recorded on a scoreboard listing the top results and difficulty.
