The maze at Shield is made up of 7 rooms.
The format is:
number to represent the room: [type of room] left exit, right exit (entrance) - colour of sprite, position of sprite
1: [standard room] 2, 3 (0) - cyan, near entrance
2: [standard room] 4, 5 (1) - yellow, near entrance
3: [standard room] 5, 3 (1) - magenta, near exit
4: [cpu]
5: [devils gate] 6 (2)
6: [standard room] 4, 7 (5) - magenta, near entrance
7: [standard room] 7, 1 (3) - yellow, near exit
After fighting the boss at the CPU tower you will receive the CPU of awesome (it is noticeable by its lack of 8/16/32/64/128/256G in its title). Equip this CPU to a bug in your party to access the door in the middle of the devils gate room, this will lead you to Dark Castle (I think that was what they called it), or as I call it, the mojibake room.
Note: Rooms 2 and 4 of the mojibake room/Dark Castle (not the Shield maze) change into one of three different rooms every single time you enter them.
This took me an extremely long time to figure it out. This should help everyone avoid spending several hours on the problem like I did.
Let me know if any of this is less than accurate.
