Daily number path challenge from June 5, 2026.
The numbered waypoints in a Zip puzzle are not just goals to reach — they are the skeleton of your solution. Before drawing anything, look at where the numbers are placed on the grid. The path between consecutive waypoints has to cover all the cells in that region without leaving gaps. If waypoints 3 and 4 are close together, the path between them is short and you need to fill the surrounding cells on a different segment. If they are far apart, you have a long stretch to cover. Mapping out these distances gives you a rough shape of the path before you draw a single line. On today's 6×6 daily puzzle, try tracing the waypoint sequence with your eyes first and see if the solution clicks before you start drawing.
Archive puzzle #156 is a Friday 6x6 Zip challenge. Use this replay to practice short forced moves near numbered cells, watch for rushing between adjacent waypoints without filling nearby cells, and aim for a clean first route attempt.
