Number Snake for Android

11 things about Number Snake

1. There are also other given numbers on the grid (with values between the smallest and the highest) to help direct the player how to start the solution and to ensure that Hidato has a single solution.

2. Numbrix puzzles, created by Marilyn vos Savant and appearing in most editions of the weekly magazine Parade, are similar to Hidato except that diagonal moves are not allowed and that all puzzles are square in shape (vos Savant has only used 7×7 and 9×9 grids).

3. Note: the above condition on the smallest or highest numbers are sometimes relaxed: only their values can be given, without their positions on the grid (of course, the difference between these values must be equal to the number of cells in the grid minus one).

4. Jadium puzzles (formerly Snakepit puzzles), created by Jeff Marchant, are a more difficult version of Numbrix with fewer given numbers and have appeared on the Parade web site regularly since 2014, along with a daily online version of Numbrix.

5. In every Hidato puzzle the smallest and the highest numbers are given on the grid.

6. Some publishers use different names for this puzzle such as Number Snake, Snakepit (both of which play on the game's similarity in concept to the video game Snake), Jadium or Numbrix.

7. As in the Sudoku case, the resolution of harder Hidato or Numbrix puzzles requires the use of more complex techniques - in particular of various types of chain patterns.

8. The goal of Hidato is to fill the grid with consecutive numbers that connect horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.

9. Hidato (Hebrew: חידאתו , originating from the Hebrew word Hida = Riddle), also known as "Hidoku", is a logic puzzle game invented by Dr.

10. Number Snake is a fun number game where you fill in boxes with sequential numbers until you have completed the puzzle.

11. Moreover, a Hidato puzzle intended for human solvers should have a solution that can be found by (more or less) simple logic.
