Monthly Maze Competition - September 2025
Every month Mazelog presents the challenge of a new logic maze. Solve the maze to get your name published in next month's list of correct entries.
Full details of how to enter are given below. Here's this month's maze:
Diamond Mine (easy)
Start on the diamond at the top and jump to a cell containing a different symbol. From here jump to a new cell containing a symbol that's different from the two previous symbols. You can jump horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.
Continue in this way, making sure that the last three symbols you visited are different. However, there's an additional restriction: you may not make a U-turn by jumping straight back in the direction you've just come from.
Find the smallest number of jumps needed to reach the diamond at the bottom.
