About Zip #532
- Zip #532 is a 6×6 grid with 10 numbered checkpoints and 12 walls.
- The path runs from 1 to 10 and must cover all 36 squares.
- It has 10 checkpoints, more than the average of 9.7 across the previous 7 puzzles.
- Each square is entered once and left once, so it needs two path links; only the two ends, checkpoints 1 and 10, need just one.
- The corners R1C1, checkpoint 2 at R1C6, checkpoint 9 at R6C1, and R6C6 have just two neighbors each, so all their links are forced: R1C1 links to R2C1 and R1C2; R1C6 links to R1C5 and R2C6; R6C1 links to R5C1 and R6C2; R6C6 links to R5C6 and R6C5.
- Walls leave R1C4, R1C5, and R2C1 only two open sides each, which fixes their links: R1C4 links to R1C3 and R1C5; R1C5 links to R1C4 and R1C6; R2C1 links to R1C1 and R3C1.
