In addition to multiple choice content, you can design a maze game in ScratchJR. In this first lesson, students will learn how to create a simple moving space for the cat character in the maze game. We will adjust the cat's movement in the maze using 4 directional arrow buttons.
If the cat touches the maze, it will automatically return to the starting position. Otherwise, if the cat touches the destination, the game will end. Below is a guide to designing a maze game in ScratchJR.
How to Create a Maze Game in ScratchJR
Step 1:
You open the new program and click on the plus icon to add characters in ScratchJR.

Step 2:
Next, students click on the white frame and then select the pen icon to draw the triangle symbol.

Students select the triangle and draw it in the white frame . Next, click on the paint bucket icon and choose a color for the triangle.

Step 3:
To design a second arrow character pointing down , select the arrow character you drew and then click on the pen icon .

Now we click on the rotating arrow icon and use our finger to change the direction of the triangle and click the v sign to add it to the design.

Step 4:
We will design 4 arrows and arrange them below the character as shown below.

Step 5:
Next you will design the message for each triangle button . You click on the left arrow and then click on the character touch command icon .

Then select the messaging icon and select the red message .

Students continue to perform the command as above with other triangles but must choose different message colors.

Step 6:
Now you will assign the main character directions of movement . Each direction will be associated with a message opening color corresponding to the message receiving color in each triangle.
For example, the up arrow with the orange message open command corresponds to the upward pointing triangle icon.

The complete command for the cat character to move in the directions of the triangle is shown below.

Now when you click on the arrow icon the cat character will move in that direction.
