About the game
Hashiwokakero, the Japanese bridges puzzle. Connect the islands with as many bridges as each number shows, only horizontally or vertically and with no more than two bridges between two islands.
Hashiwokakero belongs to the Puzzle mix variant in the Puzzles world and joined the catalogue on June 27, 2022. The rules, levels and on-screen language are set by the game’s creator, and a short guide appears on its start screen.
How to play
- Read the game’s rule on the start screen.
- Make the move that opens up the most options.
- Solve the level and move on to the next, harder one.
Tips for a better game
- The first levels teach the rules, so play them slowly and watch what each move changes.
- In puzzles with a single solution, start where you have the fewest options.
- If you get stuck, restart: a fresh look often spots the way at once.
