View source for The Hedge Maze

The Hedge Maze is located in [[The Naughty Sorceress' Tower]]. [[Meet Frank|Frank]] will guide you through the maze. Following his advice gets you [[topiary nugglet]]s. Ignoring him gets you through quicker, but puts you up against more challenges.

==Notes==
*After completing the maze, you can reach [[The Naughty Sorceress' Tower Door]].
*If at any point you run out of turns before finishing the maze, the next choice will have only a "Leave" option. Returning after getting more adventures will let you start from where you left off.
*If at any point you lose all your HP, the test will stop. Upon returning, you will start from where you left off. One of the following messages will be displayed:
::The last thing you remember is Frank biting your collar and dragging you back to the courtyard.
::The last thing you see before you lose consciousness is Frank's disapproving glare. "Chief, I ''tried'' to warn you."
::The last thing you remember is Frank dragging you back out of the tunnel with his teeth, muttering his disapproval.
*You can enter the maze while falling-down drunk.
*Rule of thumb:
**Defeating a topiary monster allows you to skip one noncombat.
**Passing an elemental test allows you to skip up to two noncombats (except for the last two tests, where you have less than two remaining noncombats).

==History==
*The Tower was revamped in 2015. For the old version of the maze see [[The Hedge Maze/Old]].
