Is there really only one way through the ruler maze?

Yes. Every maze on MazeDIY is generated by algorithm and checked with a path-finding pass, so there is exactly one route from start to finish.

About the Ruler

A ruler is a straight tool for measuring how long something is. You line it up against an object and read the length off the marks along its edge. Because the edge is perfectly straight, it also helps you draw neat straight lines. People have used rulers for at least 4,500 years. Print this for a math or drawing lesson and trace along its measured edge.

A ruler measures length and doubles as a straightedge for drawing lines.
Rulers have been used since at least 2650 BC.
