Raimais (レイメイズ, Reimeizu) is a maze chase arcade game released in April 1988 in Japan by Taito.

The game consists of 32 mazes total plus boss fights (some optional, some not). The game was ported to the Famicom Disk System under the title Youmais the same year. It was included as part of the compilation Taito Legends 2 in 2006, marking its first official release in the west. It was also re-released as part of the Arcade Archives lineup on the PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch on November 18, 2021, worldwide.
