Mazes were so common in games that in his 1982 book "Writing BASIC Adventure Programs for the TRS-80," Frank DaCosta wrote, "An adventure program is hardly complete without a maze."

And Stupid Invaders contained several mazes, including a full-blown hedge maze which had no shortcut (and, indeed, had a delaying tactic in the form of a snail which you had to ride); players and reviews were not kind to the game on this point.
