How to play Number Path

Number Path is a single-stroke puzzle. Start on the square marked 1 and draw one continuous path, square to neighbouring square, that covers the whole grid.

The numbers are checkpoints: the path must reach 2 after 1, then 3, and so on, finishing on the highest number. Thick walls block the way between squares.

The trick is to look for squares that can only be entered one way, and for moves that would cut the unvisited squares in two. It plays like the popular daily number path puzzles.

How to play Number Path

Draw one path from 1 that passes through every square once, reaching the numbers in order and ending on the highest number.

The rules

  1. Move from a square to a neighbour above, below, left or right — never diagonally.
  2. Visit every square exactly once.
  3. Start on 1, reach 2, then 3, and so on; finish on the highest number.
  4. Don’t cross a thick wall.

Playing here

  1. Choose walls or no walls, a size and a difficulty, then press New Puzzle.
  2. Drag from the 1 through neighbouring squares. Drag back over your path to undo, or tap any square on the path to cut it there.
  3. The next number to reach glows. Your trail turns green when every square is covered in order.
  4. Hint trims any wrong turn and shows where the path must go next — and why.

Questions

Is this like the daily path puzzles?

Yes — one path, every square, numbers in order, and walls, just like the popular daily versions.

What do the walls do?

A thick line between two squares means the path can’t step directly between them.

Is there always one answer?

Yes — every puzzle here is checked to have exactly one path.

How do I solve one from an app or book?

Open the Number Path Solver, type the numbers, add any walls and press Solve.
