Works where the main map is a 3x3 maze - an IFDB Poll

I saw a parallel between two very different games, and I think there must be more such games! I appreciated the economy in both, diagonal exits or no.

I sort-of wrote one of my own & have a WIP that is sort of 3x3. If I ever write it, I'll add it. (So yeah I'm looking for inspiration!)

Though my first three I thought of are parser, Twine games are of course welcome too.
