[[File:The_Maze.jpg|thumb|The third level in The Maze.]]
[[File:K-fee Car.png|thumb|The K-fee car commercial]]
'''[[The Maze]]''', more commonly known as the '''Scary Maze Game''', is a Flash game created in October 2004. It was made by game developer [[Jeremy Winterrowd]].


This Flash prank disguises itself as a simple maze game in which the player has to utilize their mouse cursor in order to move a blue little dot through the maze. At the start screen, there is a note informing the player that the objective of the game is to pass through all 4 levels, and the player cannot touch the walls; however, there are actually only three levels in the game. The game also explains that it is best with volume on, but, there is no sound in any part of the game except for the very secret level 4!
[[K-fee commercials|In April of 2005]], German caffeine company [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jump_scare#In_advertising '''K-fee'''] released nine 20-second long television commercials as part of their ''Wide Awake'' campaign for their coffee drink. These commercials have been heavily criticized for their content and many feel that the adverts are very uncommercial and upsetting, though its shocking visual is built to simulate the effect that the product has on the viewer.


The first two levels are easy to complete. But as the third level is reached, the walls begin to shrink and have sharp turns, making it difficult to avoid touching them. This usually makes the player concentrate on the screen. Then, near the first curve to the left of the maze sharp part, a picture of [[Regan MacNeil]] from the 1973's classic horror movie ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Exorcist_(film) The Exorcist]'' pops up along with two loud screams, scaring the user.
