Webhunt
The online treasure hunt
Mazes are an ancient human fascination. Abstract spiral designs found on a rock tomb in Sardinia, Italy, are estimated to have been carved nearly 4000 years ago. Modern mazes still exert a kind of magic. Walking a good maze is like picking a lock from the inside; it is a twisted geometric mystery pipe for unraveling.
Part of the fun of a maze is getting lost; the other is testing your navigation skills by finding the right path. Here we will leave you all in a-maze with your partner and the awesome web of www. You need to get to the centre and lift the trophy before anyone else does so. There may be several possible paths but only one of them would lead you where we want to go. So come and be prepared to get lost or to unveil the great treasure that lies within.
