I am testing out a new type of maze where the goal is to connect two gears on the opposite sides of the board. You must use all the gears in the set and all of them must be connected.
Don't forget to like the design. And if you print it, I would love to see how it turned out for you so add a "make" to this design to show off your version!
It is simple to connect sides without using all the gears, but can you fit them all in the board without them blocking each other?
This is concept level! If it is enjoyed, then I will be developing additional levels that will include way more ideas that will make finding the path so much more challenging - blocks on the board and so much more!
