Welcome to Zip Puzzle!

Connect the numbered dots in order by drawing a continuous path that fills the entire grid.

Strategy tips

Use these ideas to tighten your path and avoid dead ends.

Start from the center to keep options open for corners later.
Reserve diagonal moves to connect outer dots without boxing yourself in.
Use the final dot as a checkpoint—if you reach it too early, reset and plan again.
