Why play Number Path on JAWNA?

Number Path: goal and players

Play Number Path online on JAWNA at jawna.app. Check the goal and supported player counts before inviting your group. Read the rules even if you know the game: familiar names can have different variants, and your usual house rules may differ from the selected version.

Supported table sizes: 2, 3 or 4 players. Choose a player count in the game settings. In partner variants, check seats and teams first. In individual formats, each player competes for their own result. The in-game How to play screen provides details. Agree on the variant before your first round together.

How to play: rules

  1. The grid holds every number from 1 to the number of squares. Each number touches the next one, side to side or corner to corner, making one unbroken path.
  2. Some numbers are printed. Fill in the rest. Every puzzle has exactly one answer.
  3. Drag from any number to lay a stroke: each square you pass gets the next number. Drag back to take a step back. A stroke passes through a printed number only when it is the right next one.
  4. Or tap a number, then tap a touching square for the next number, and keep tapping.
  5. Down turns strokes the other way (12, 11, 10…), handy for working back from a printed number.
  6. Writing a number again moves it. Erase clears the number you selected; Undo takes back your last stroke.
  7. A gold cord joins numbers that touch. A red mark means a number doesn’t touch the one after it yet.
  8. Everyone gets the same puzzle and plays at once. The first to fill the grid with a correct path wins. You only see how full the others’ grids are.
  9. When the clock runs out (10, 15 or 20 minutes), players are ranked by how many squares they have right.

History & origins

Number Path belongs to the consecutive-number path puzzle family, closely related to Hidato by Israeli mathematician Gyora Benedek.

The challenge joins neighbouring numbers into a continuous route through the grid, using the printed numbers as anchors.

Jawna generates a shared board for a race. This is an adaptation of the number-path idea, without claiming that its title names the original published puzzle.
