Mirror Maze

What students practice

Students practice reflection, tracing a laser beam in their head as it bounces off a series of mirrors, including see-through glass panes that the light passes straight through, to predict where it will exit.

How to play

Players use the arrow keys to park a catcher at the spot where they believe the beam will come out, then press Enter to fire, earning bonus points for firing early before the fuse burns down. A missed beam shows the real path and where the prediction went wrong, and that maze returns later; missing three beams ends the mission.

Teacher Setup

Teacher Setup lets a teacher set the maze size and number of mirrors per maze, turn on glass decoys, and add guide dots that hint at the beam's first straight run, plus speed and whether the path is shown after a miss; the end screen offers a printable student report listing the skills to practice.
