About This File

Mazes formed from tangled living hedges have been a feature of gardens and parks for at least six hundred years. The first hedge mazes were probably planted during the late mediaeval period, but ironically, the first positive evidence for a hedge maze is the record of the destruction of an example in Paris during 1431. The designs of these early garden mazes were often simple adaptations of the widespread single-path labyrinth designs laid during the 12th to 14th centuries in the floors of churches and cathedrals, primarily in France and Italy.

This maze is on a 6x6 lot. It features a number of beautifully manicured hidden gardens to be traversed before reaching the centre of the maze; the gazebo. There are multiple entrances to the maze and two or three ways into the gazebo. But there are many false turns and dead ends to waste time in.

The lot behaves like a large park with significant Landmark and Park effects. It also reduces air pollution around it. The effects are basically 2-3 times the 3x3 park, at three times the cost. See the readme for all settings.

This lot only uses Maxis and custom props that are in pre-existing prop files. I didn't create any new props or buildings for it. I'd like to thank Simgoober, Dolphin66, SWI21, Couchpotato for the props and BarbyW for her inspirational parks. Please see the readme for list of dependencies. If you don't like dependencies, don't download this lot.

These lots are BSC Tracking Enabled (BTE) which means they may contribute to Reward Chains.

This looks totally cool! I love it. My only suggestion would be to make a modular version so that someone can interconnect them to make a much larger maze. 10/10

Thanks for the great lot Deadwoods. Just a suggestion: could you start listing the dependancies in the description? You tell us not to download if we don't like the dependancies, but once we see them, we've already downloaded. Besides that, keep up the good work!

Fair comment elbarto. I'll see what I can do. I've got some readme templates I use with SC4Tool that I'd need to tweak.

Looks good, though, the hedges look a little bit on the skinny side. I've always seen mazes with thick hedges and narrow walkways. But a good job overall.

I love the idea... and I've love to see more like this! I've been thinking of constructing a hedge-maze type park myself... maybe I still will and use this as motivation!
