Play Hashi Bridges with the rules at hand

Take a moment with Hashi Bridges before moving to another game. Connect all islands into one network with exactly the indicated number of attached bridges. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Compare the starting position with the example in the Guide. Use the example below to understand a decision.

Choose from ten nine-island layouts. Join adjacent islands along the straight connections shown.

Something to practise

Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Use the example to check your reasoning.

Understand the aim

Connect all islands into one network with exactly the indicated number of attached bridges. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.

A walkthrough of the rules

  1. Select two neighbouring islands or click an edge.
  2. Cycle zero, one or two bridges.
  3. Match every numbered island.
  4. Check puzzle also verifies the islands form one network.

The controls to know

Click or tap squares or graph edges. Number boards include a digit pad. Undo reverses the previous change; Check puzzle validates the solution. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.

One way to understand the rules

An island marked 3 may use a double bridge and a single bridge. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Verify the rule before continuing.

A common point of confusion

Correct totals in separate disconnected groups do not win. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
