I mean, you have 1 present more, but 1 step less

no steps is the similar

This is copied from the official topic on PreProd (and is interspersed with some of my own images):
The Maze contest returns with several changes.

With the help of one of your horses, you must reach the exit at the other end of the maze to release and win the jackpot.

You may come across prizes or bonuses to help you progress in the event when moving in the mazes.

Pick a horse
Choose a horse to enter the maze. The numbers of paces it will be able to do depends on its skills.
►You cannot look after the horse you choose when it is used for the event.
►You can change the horse whenever you want during the contest.



(*This is the changing horse screen, but the original choosing screen is basically the same.*)
(**Also note: If/When you change your horse, the energy doesn't renew. So if your horse has 20 energy left, the new horse you replace it with will also have 20 energy, not 100.**)

Moving around
When your horse is in the maze, you must find the way out to get out, you cannot go out by the entry.
►You can move your horses if you have enough paces (see below) to do it, by clicking on the directional arrows.

Paces
When you begin the event, your horse has 100 paces. This number decreases by 20 each time you move it in the maze. When you do not have enough paces anymore, you have to wait for the paces to recharge.
►Paces recharge every hour, on the hour, depending on the skills of the chosen horse.
You cannot have more than 100 paces.

Prizes
When traveling through the maze, you may come across prizes and bonuses.
Unlike the first version of this event, you can acquire these prizes/bonuses directly without having to click on them.
►The prizes are given randomly, except for the first gift you win and for the jackpots.

Prize List:



Bonuses
There are 2 types of bonuses:
►treats
►scarabs

Treats
Treats allow you to move without using paces.
►Any treats are used before paces are expended.
►You can also buy treats with passes.

Scarabs
The Scarab is used to reveal a portion of the map that hasn't been explored yet. The area revealed is near the horse’s current location in order to help you find your way.

►You can also buy scarabs with passes.




During the contest, at certain times, you can also find treats at the level 3 of the Titan’s Challenge.
(**This might change as on PreProd people have brought up suggestions of treats on different levels and compensation treats even if we don't reach level 3, but we likely won't know if they implement the changes until the maze goes live.**)

Exiting a maze
When you go through a maze exit, you arrive on a page with the jackpot, a teleporter, and a Golden Horse Shoe for your trophies.

►The jackpot and the Golden Horseshoes can be won once for each maze. So if you finish the same maze several times, you will not receive them again.

►The teleporter allows you to return in the hall where all the entrances can be found. You can then choose which maze you want to enter.

(These are the three other maze entrances. When you first go to the promo page, they are behind bars, which rise only once you complete the first maze. You can click both inside the doorway and on the little blue ball.)




Horus and Thot/Thoth
We introduce a new series of divine horses: the Egyptian horses.
Osiris and Iris, which already exist, are added to this new series.

There will be 11 horses in that series. The last one Ra can be won when you have the first 10.

Horus and Thot/Thoth can be won with the maze.

The principle of those horses is that you can scratch a card on their page every day the horse wakes up. The scratch card can make you win skills for the horse and other prizes, which depends on the horse.
A new trophy is added on trophies page.

Horus can win randomly:
►1 Philosopher’s stone
►Equus
►Skills you can give to him like you want

Thot/Thoth can win randomly:
►1 Hermes Winged Staff
►Aging points
►Skills you can give to him like you want

maps for Maze 3?

So it's better to wait for the TCs, because then for 2 passes you get anywhere from 6-10 treats.

But, you forgot to mention that it is necessary to finish 2 mazes, going through the long way before using the teleporter for the other mazes, to go through the short way...
It has been confirmed on the french version equideow

Maze 3 :




Long Green way (Entry) :
- 192 steps
- 23 treats = 69 free steps
123 steps left

Short Yellow way (teleporter) :
- 104 steps
- 16 treats = 48 free steps
56 steps left

Starry talked about the teleporters and that we may need to go through two full mazes, at the end of the calculations section. Though it may have been confirmed on French Equidow, she is trying to get further responses from the English preprod to determine whether or not it is really true, or just a bug.

She is just double-checking things before updating us, that's all. She stated she would update the forum when she has the information - we just need to be patient for that.

I check long path and find one steps less. Sweet on R8 you not have inclusive in calculation

the dotted line is the second a variant of path (paths is the same lenght)
