This video, which has more than 1.25 million views as of 2019 showed the cursor make a shortcut (which in practice would have killed the player) in level 3 which unlocks a trigger to level 4 (pictured) once finishing the level, the game goes back to the main screen text asks the viewer, 'care to try a little bit faster this time?' Other videos of the mysterious level continued to circulate. The earliest ' tutorial' on how to get to the 4th level was uploaded by the YouTube user SoccerMomDebbie on October 19, 2008.

On YouTube, there are some fake videos of people supposedly successfully going through the 3rd level and finally entering the 4th level. There is an alternative version of the game used in the comedy television series America's Funniest Home Videos, where the face is replaced with the one from What's Wrong?, due to Warner Bros' copyright laws.Įven though only three levels exist in the game code, some videos circulated about a secret fourth level. The original version of the game had some slight differences in color, where orange/yellow with alternative text was used instead of turquoise. The game was uploaded in 2005 on Jeremy's website,. Then, near the first curve to the left of the maze sharp part (The game also knows if the player is cheating if they use right-click), an image of Regan MacNeil in her possessed state from the 1973 supernatural horror film The Exorcist pops up along with two loud screams, scaring the user.

This Flash prank disguises itself as a simple maze game in which the player has to utilize their mouse cursor to move a blue little dot through the maze. It was made by game developer Jeremy Winterrowd and was inspired by Steady Hand. The Maze, more commonly known as the Scary Maze Game, was a Flash game created in October 2004.

I was very flattered and figured I should make a website for all the stupid prank games I've made. About 5 months later, someone had sent the same email back to my mother! It had turned into a viral email joke. I made this game in October of '04 for Halloween and sent it to a few of my friends in an email.
