Zip Solver

Written by Sukie

A Zip solver for any LinkedIn board. Set the size, tap cells in order to place 1, 2, 3 and so on where today's numbers are, switch to walls and tap the borders that are blocked, then solve. The path is drawn over your board from the first number to the last.

It searches every route that respects the numbers and the walls and returns the one that covers all the cells. On the 6×6 and 7×7 boards LinkedIn uses that is quick; an 8×8 with few numbers can take a few seconds, so give it a moment.

For the reasoning behind the path — pockets, perimeter, working back from the last number — the Zip guide has it. Today's board, solved, is on the LinkedIn Zip answer today page.

Tap cells in order to place 1, 2, 3… where the numbers sit today. Switch to walls and tap the line between two cells to block it. Then solve.

Placing numbers and walls

In Numbers mode, each tap adds the next number to the tapped cell; tapping a numbered cell removes it. In Walls mode, tap the thin gap between two cells to add a wall there; tap again to remove it. The counter under the board shows how many of each you've placed.

Frequently asked questions

Why does it say no path?

Either the numbers are in the wrong order, a wall is misplaced, or the board size doesn't match. The parity note on the Zip guide explains one common impossible case.
