Printable hashiwokakero
Hashiwokakero — bridges, or simply hashi — is a map of islands, each numbered with the bridges it needs. Join them with straight lines, at most two between any pair, never crossing, until every island has its number and all of them connect.
Every day there is a new map in each of three sizes, dealt to everybody alike and solvable without a single guess. Pick a size, print the sheet, and take it wherever a screen would not go.

How to play
Join the islands with bridges until each island has exactly as many as its number says.
Bridges run straight — across or down — never cross, and at most two can join the same pair of islands.
In the end every island must hang together in one connected group.
Tap between two islands to bridge them, or drag out from an island. Repeat for a double, once more to clear.
Questions people ask

- Yes. The sheets, the boards on the site and the archive are free, without an account and without advertising. The PDFs are made once a day and anyone may download them.
- How many puzzles are there a day?
- One new board a day at each level — 7 × 7, 10 × 10, and 15 × 15 — the same for everybody, dealt at midnight UTC. Earlier days stay downloadable in the archive below.
- Do I need to sign up?

- Does every puzzle have exactly one solution?
- Yes. Every board is checked to have a single solution and to be solvable by reasoning alone — no guessing is ever needed. The solution is not printed; the sheet holds the puzzle and the rules.

- Yes — print, photocopy and hand them out as you like, for a class, a club or a waiting room. Only leave the credit line at the foot of the sheet where it is.
