About Number Path
Number Path is a Hidato-style puzzle. Some squares already hold numbers, and you must draw a single path that visits every square exactly once, passing through the numbered squares at the right step. Each level is generated from a real solution, so it always has an answer.
How to play
- Start from the square marked 1.
- Tap a neighbouring square to extend the path. Tap the end of the path to undo a step.
- Visit every square, reaching each gold number on exactly that step.
Tips and strategy
- Look at the gap between two gold numbers: it tells you how many squares the path needs.
- Corners and edges often have only one way through.
- If you get stuck, undo back to the last choice point.
Levels, stars and XP
Finish a level to earn one to three stars and XP towards your player level. Replay any unlocked level to improve your stars. From level 151 the game enters endless mode, where each level is a remix of an earlier one with fresh colours and a slightly higher difficulty.
