If you could use color on such simple games why not do it?
They are already primitive and colorless makes them look even more bland and unappealing.
Anyway after a loong wait (very long indeed) just staring into an empty white screen (always looked grey to me) you see a maze appear, then an asterisk, if you use the cursor keys you see you can move the asterisk thru the maze. The interesting bit is that the maze scrolls both up/down and left/right, something unusual in BASIC written games. I decided to explore every four corners of the screen hoping to find something, and at one moment I decided to call it quits, when suddenly an X mark appeared on the left bottom corner. I rushed to touched it and... 9 STOP statement, 0:1
This is obviously a routine, a useful one and not a game. It's somewhat unusual like I said before, so I'll score it with a 2,5/5.
