Complete the number path by placing every consecutive value so each number touches the next, including diagonally.

These puzzles engage different skills while you play. This does not in itself establish general cognitive improvement or replace professional care.

The challenge

Complete the number path by placing every consecutive value so each number touches the next, including diagonally.

How to play

Place every number from 1 to the board maximum exactly once.
Each number must touch the next horizontally, vertically or diagonally.
Printed numbers are fixed clues; use the gaps between them to deduce where the path can continue.

Advanced strategies

Two fixed numbers imply an exact number of steps; check whether neighbouring cells, including diagonals, can support that route.
You do not have to start at 1: look for short intervals between nearby clues first.
Corners and edges have fewer neighbours, so they often constrain the path earlier.
Work backwards too: connecting a high clue to the previous value can be easier.
