The Hashi Bridges playbook

Open Hashi Bridges, check the instructions and begin a round. Connect all islands into one network with exactly the indicated number of attached bridges. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Compare the starting position with the example in the Guide. Look at what changes after your first action.

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

Try a more deliberate round

Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Use the example to check your reasoning.

What counts as success

Connect all islands into one network with exactly the indicated number of attached bridges. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Take a moment to understand the current position.

How a round unfolds

  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.

Using the playing area

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. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.

An example before you play

An island marked 3 may use a double bridge and a single bridge. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Consider the next action carefully.

A useful caution

Correct totals in separate disconnected groups do not win. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
