How to Play

Hashiwokakero, often called Hashi or Bridges, shows numbered islands on a grid. Each number is the total number of bridges that must connect to that island. Bridges run horizontally or vertically, never diagonally.

You can build up to two bridges between any pair of islands. Bridges cannot cross each other, and all islands must be connected into one network.

Controls

Drag between two islands to build a bridge. Drag again to add a second bridge. A third drag removes them.

Scoring

Time and the number of bridge adjustments determine your score.
