Zip · Draw one path through every cell, hitting the numbers in order · puzzle #531

Stuck on today's LinkedIn Zip? Three progressive hints come first, then the full solution — tap to reveal as much or as little as you want. Other games today: Mini Sudoku · Patches · Wend · Queens · Tango · Pinpoint · Crossclimb.

Zip #531 is a 7×7 grid with 11 numbered cells. The long haul is 5 → 6: 13 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 4, column 6, the first moves go down, left×3, up.

Hint 2 — a solid foothold

Leg lengths in order: 1→2 is 7 cells, 2→3 is 1 cell, 3→4 is 2 cells, 4→5 is 2 cells, 5→6 is 13 cells, 6→7 is 3 cells, 7→8 is 4 cells, 8→9 is 13 cells, 9→10 is 2 cells, 10→11 is 1 cell.

Hint 3 — nearly there

Halfway point: after 24 cells you should be at row 1, column 5.

Solution

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