Zip #489 is a 8×8 grid with 10 numbered cells and 18 walls. The long haul is 5 → 6: 16 cells, so that stretch has to sweep a whole region before it can turn. Remember the path must cover every cell, so dead-end pockets have to be entered and left in one pass.

Hints

Hint 1 — where to start

From 1 at row 2, column 7, the first moves go left×5.

Hint 2 — a solid foothold

Leg lengths in order: 1→2 is 6 cells, 2→3 is 15 cells, 3→4 is 1 cell, 4→5 is 2 cells, 5→6 is 16 cells, 6→7 is 6 cells, 7→8 is 5 cells, 8→9 is 6 cells, 9→10 is 6 cells.

Hint 3 — nearly there

Halfway point: after 32 cells you should be at row 8, column 7.

Solution

Tap any part to reveal it, or reveal everything at once.
