Play Slitherlink with the rules at hand
Choose a round of Slitherlink and settle into its rules. Draw one closed loop whose edges match the count around every numbered cell. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Read the objective before making your first input. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.
Ten 4×4 loop puzzles with all cell clues shown.
Try a more deliberate round
Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Make the next step deliberately.
What you need to achieve
Draw one closed loop whose edges match the count around every numbered cell. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Try to explain the aim in your own words.
Work through the instructions
- Click an edge to draw, exclude or clear it.
- Count the four edges around each cell.
- Do not branch or form separate loops.
- Check puzzle verifies every clue and loop connectivity.
Making selections and moves
Click or tap squares or graph edges. Number boards include a digit pad. Undo reverses the previous change; Check puzzle validates the solution. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. A new-round button replaces the current round.
Follow the example
A 0 cell has no loop edge around it; a 3 has exactly three. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Keep the controls nearby.
A mistake to avoid
Several small loops are invalid even if clues match. Check the rule before repeating the action. 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.
