게임 방법: Zip
- 숫자 1에서 마지막 숫자까지, 숫자를 순서대로 지나는 하나의 길을 그리세요.
- 길은 격자의 모든 칸을 지나야 합니다.
- 길은 서로 교차하거나 두꺼운 벽을 통과할 수 없습니다.
- 드래그로 그리거나, 길 끝과 일직선상의 칸을 터치해 한 번에 채우세요. 지나온 칸을 다시 밟으면 되돌아갑니다.
How to solve Zip: techniques that work
Zip is a Hamiltonian path puzzle: one line from checkpoint 1 to the last number that visits every cell exactly once. Before drawing anything, look at the corners and edges. A corner cell has only two neighbours, so the path must enter through one and leave through the other — corners are effectively pre-drawn.
Watch for pockets. If your planned route walls off a group of empty cells, the board is already lost — every cell must be reachable by the remaining path. Good players constantly ask "can the line still get back out of there?" before committing to a turn.
Use the checkpoints as anchors and plan backwards from the final number as well as forwards from 1. The stretch between the two last checkpoints is usually the most constrained part of the board; solving it mentally first often decides the whole route. Walls block movement between adjacent cells, which paradoxically helps: each wall removes options and makes more of the path forced.
Common mistakes
The most frequent one is filling space greedily and leaving a single unreachable cell in a corner — the parity of the grid means one stranded cell can rarely be recovered. Undo early rather than pushing a doomed line.
Second: forgetting the checkpoints must be hit in ascending order. A route that touches 3 before 2 is invalid even if it covers the board perfectly.
From easy to hard
Difficulty scales with board size, wall count and checkpoint spacing. On hard boards, treat each pair of consecutive checkpoints as its own mini-puzzle and check that your segment leaves a connected region for the rest of the path.
FAQ
- LinkMyPzzl에서 Zip은 무료·무제한인가요?
- 네. 모든 Zip 보드는 브라우저에서 즉시 생성됩니다. 계정 없이 무료로 원하는 만큼 플레이하세요.
- 매일 나오는 Zip 퍼즐과 무엇이 다른가요?
- LinkedIn으로 유명해진 데일리 버전은 하루에 한 문제뿐입니다. LinkMyPzzl은 보드를 무제한 생성하고 난이도도 고를 수 있습니다.
- 모든 Zip 보드에 유일한 정답이 있나요?
- 네. 솔버가 생성된 모든 보드를 검증합니다. 정답은 언제나 정확히 하나입니다.
- Do I have to cover every cell?
- Yes. The path must pass through every single cell of the grid exactly once while hitting the numbered checkpoints in order — covering the numbers alone isn't enough.
- How do I undo a wrong turn?
- Drag backwards along the path to retract it, use the Undo button under the board, or re-enter any earlier cell of the path to cut it back to that point.
