About this game

Maxwell's Maniac is a computer game originally part of the Microsoft Entertainment Pack series. Loosely based on the concept of the Maxwell's Demon thought experiment, the object of the game is to separate the red and blue molecules into their respective color-coded chambers using a sliding door. It is superficially similar to JezzBall in layout.
