Winding Woods

Winding Woods is a small game similar to a simplified Legend of Zelda, in particular its "lost woods" area.

You find yourself lost in a maze-like forest, where you have to find your way out. Exiting the screen in most directions will simply turn you around to the other side, running in circles. Enemies also roam the maze, which can be defeated with your sword. Mystic wanderers give you hints on how to navigate the maze — or do they?
