Fun Fact
Originally, A-MAZE-ING was going to be bundled with [Hunt the Wumpus] and [Blasto] as a single Solid State Software Command ModuleTM cartridge. However, Kevin Kenney chose to add additional content and feature to each of the titles, making it possible to distribute each as a single product. This turned out to be advantageous for TI, since all three of these games ended up being top sellers, and brought TI more revenue than would have come in if all three would have been combined into one product.
