About Zip #534
- Zip #534 is a 6×6 grid with 8 numbered checkpoints and 0 walls.
- The path runs from 1 to 8 and must cover all 36 squares.
- It has 8 checkpoints, fewer 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 8, need just one.
- The corners checkpoint 2 at R1C6 and checkpoint 3 at R6C6 have just two neighbors each, so all their links are forced: R1C6 links to R1C5 and R2C6; R6C6 links to R5C6 and R6C5.
