Daily bridges · One shared board

Hashi puzzle for November 5, 2026

One pond. A little shared discovery.

Everyone receives the same numbered islands for the UTC day. Connect nearest islands horizontally or vertically with one or two bridges, meeting every number exactly. Bridges cannot cross or travel through another island. Every island must be connected to every other island through your network. A loop is allowed; a separate little group is not a finished puzzle.

Tap the first island, then its outlined neighbour, or drag between them. Repeating a connection changes a single bridge to a double, then removes it. The Rule out tool makes an optional pencil note. A check on an island only confirms its current bridge count. If you meet all the numbers but leave separate groups, revisit the connections that closed those groups.

Each original daily puzzle has one exact solution and a checked logical route. The daily publication is frozen in the database, so editing or reordering the source bank cannot change a puzzle partway through the day. Only the public island clues are sent to the page. The three tiny teaching crossings do not start your daily timer or edit the real board.

Your first real connection starts the attempt. The server records elapsed time and hint use; it checks the full network before accepting a ranked score. The score starts at 3,000, loses four points per second and 300 for each logical hint, and has a floor of 100. Hint asks for confirmation before the first daily charge. Repeatedly viewing the same hint without changing the board is free. Verification is available for 30 minutes from the first move.

A verified daily solve adds a named miniature archipelago to this week's collection. If verification is unavailable, you can finish locally and keep a plain version instead. The date determines its colours and motif, so sharing your result never reveals a bridge arrangement. Collections live in this browser and practice does not add daily pieces.

Hashi is an official daily game. A server-verified solve counts towards Today and your streak from November 2, 2026. Earlier preview collectibles stay on your shelf without being counted as official days. A fresh archipelago arrives at 00:00 UTC. Try practice for smaller introductions or harder connectivity deductions.
