Hashi Bridges: what to know before playing

Something to practise

Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow. Refer to the controls when needed.

What you are aiming for

Connect all islands into one network with exactly the indicated number of attached bridges. Read that aim before choosing your first action. The example below illustrates a decision.

The playing sequence

  1. Select two neighbouring islands or click an edge.
  2. Cycle zero, one or two bridges.
  3. Match every numbered island.
  4. Check puzzle also verifies the islands form one network.

How to use the controls

Click or tap squares or graph edges. Number boards include a digit pad. Undo reverses the previous change; Check puzzle validates the solution. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Contact us with the game and device if a control does not respond.

Learn from a sample situation

An island marked 3 may use a double bridge and a single bridge. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Take a moment to compare.

Check this before moving on

Correct totals in separate disconnected groups do not win. Check the rule before repeating the action. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
