'''The Great Maze''' ({{ja|大迷宮|Dai Meikyū}}, ''Great Maze'') is the | '''The Great Maze''' ({{ja|大迷宮|Dai Meikyū}}, ''Great Maze'') is the 31st and final level of the [[Subspace Emissary]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. After many sections of the [[World of Trophies]] are sent to [[Subspace]], [[Tabuu]] creates a large maze made of sections from most of the previously visited levels in the game. To complete this, the player must win a number of battles, against vicious [[False character#In The Great Maze|Subspacial clones]] of almost all the characters in the game (excluding {{SSBB|Zero Suit Samus}}, {{SSBB|Sheik|}}, {{SSBB|Sonic}}, {{SSBB|Toon Link}}, {{SSBB|Wolf}}, and {{SSBB|Jigglypuff}}), and against all of the [[boss]]es (except for {{SSBB|Master Hand}} and {{SSBB|Crazy Hand}}). | ||

There is no specific order in which the player must beat all the enemies, and it is possible to play as any character that has been rescued so far. [[Save Point]]s and Warp points are dispersed throughout the maze. These two types of checkpoints are indicated by the ''Smash Bros.'' emblem mounted on a trophy stand and look like a forest clearing with a Subspace rip in the fabric of the sky. Save Points restore the player's stock to 4 (6 in later runs) and damage to 0%, as well as letting the player re-select characters or fiddle with stickers. Warp Points are identical but also allow teleportation between other visited Warp Points, as well as serving as both entry and exit points to and from the maze itself. | There is no specific order in which the player must beat all the enemies, and it is possible to play as any character that has been rescued so far.

Once all battles are completed, a large purple door becomes accessible in the center of the maze, which leads to Tabuu's Residence. Any subspacial clone or boss that has not yet been defeated will be seen obstructing the door and can only vanish once each character or boss is defeated.

The [[Isle of the Ancients]], however, is not restored: the great number of Subspace Bombs going off in one place has taken it beyond repair. In-game, the Great Maze remains on the world map afterwards so that the player can reenter it whenever they want, and the stages on the Isle of the Ancients can be replayed again (having been made inaccessible after the first completion of [[The Subspace Bomb Factory II|the second Subspace Bomb Factory]]) | ||

*Most of the re-used sections from other levels contain inaccessible areas that were part of the original level. While no enemies, doors, or other special objects can spawn there, and the collision detection is typically inactive, all of the terrain, including most platforms, are still rendered outside of the camera's view.

**Since they were designed specifically for the Great Maze, new rooms do not have these areas, with one exception, in a room meant to resemble [[The Battlefield Fortress]]. Since this room never appears outside the Great Maze, this section is completely unused in the Subspace Emissary. It is unknown why this section exists; the most likely explanation is that the room was originally going to be larger, or was originally going to be used elsewhere as well. | **Since they were designed specifically for the Great Maze, new rooms do not have these areas, with one exception, in a room meant to resemble [[The Battlefield Fortress]].

This is likely due to two reasons; the possibility that the player did not retrieve any trophies in Subspace Part I and II, leaving them with only 5 characters for the entirety of the Great Maze (Bowser, King Dedede, Kirby, Luigi, and Ness, with Sonic not appearing until the end) and that subsequent playthroughs do not allow for a refreshed stock post-cutscene before Tabuu. | ||
