Tilt Maze Game Model 

written by Salahadin Mohammed

The Tilt Maze Game Model is set on a plane that can be tilted to make the ball roll due to gravity. The plane can be tilted up, down, to the left and to the right. By tilting the planes, the user must cause the ball to move through the maze to get to the hole at the top left side of the maze...but be careful, there are some traps laid out that would stop you from accomplishing your goal.

The Tilt Maze Game Model was developed using the Easy Java Simulations (EJS) modeling tool.  It is distributed as a ready-to-run (compiled) Java archive.   Double clicking the jar file will run the program if Java is installed.  You can modify this simulation if you have EJS installed by right-clicking within the map and selecting "Open Ejs Model" from the pop-up menu item.
