Zip
What is Zip?
Zip is a line-drawing puzzle with simple rules that can still be tricky. You start at 1 and, with one continuous line, touch every number in order up to the highest. Along the way the line must pass through every cell of the board exactly once. You can only move horizontally and vertically, and you cannot cross walls, so sometimes you have to take a long detour.
If you know LinkedIn's Zip game, here you can play the same kind of puzzle for free, with a new board every day. A round takes just a few minutes, so it is perfect for a coffee break or the commute. Watch the corners and the nooks behind walls: they can often be filled in only one way. In free play you can choose a size from 5×5 to 8×8 and ask for a new board at any time.
FAQ
What should I watch out for when drawing the line?
The corners and the nooks closed off by walls: a corner cell can only be entered from two directions, so there it quickly becomes clear which way to go. If your line cuts off an area, you can no longer fill it.
How often is there a new Zip board?
A new board arrives every day at 9:00 CET, the same for everyone, so you can compare your time with other players on the daily leaderboard.
Can I play against my friends?
Yes: open a room in Duel, send the link, and everyone gets the same board. At the end you will see who was the fastest.
