What is Zip?
Zip is a LinkedIn path puzzle game. You draw one continuous route through a numbered grid, visiting every cell while passing through numbered cells in sequential order.
How to play Zip
- Open the game and examine the grid layout and numbered cells.
- Draw a single continuous path that passes through every cell exactly once.
- Ensure your path visits numbered cells in ascending order.
- Use the in-game hint if you reach a dead end or cannot proceed.
- Complete the puzzle to finish the daily challenge.
Plan the numbered sequence first
The numbered cells define a fixed order your path must follow. Before drawing freely through the grid, identify where the numbers sit and how much space lies between them. This constraint shapes the entire solution.
Unnumbered cells offer flexibility, but only if you leave enough route length to cover them. Closing off a section too early can trap cells that your path has not yet reached.
Tips for a cleaner solve
Work from the numbered cells outward. If number 3 sits in the top corner and number 4 appears near the bottom edge, your path must travel between them while collecting any unnumbered cells along the way.
Check for cells that have only one or two neighbors before committing to a direction. A cell with one open side must be either the start, the end, or a mistake in your route planning.
The game is part of LinkedIn's daily Games hub. It is designed as a quick logic exercise before work or between tasks, offering a single puzzle per day.
