HOW TO PLAY

Find your perfect five.

High numbers tempt you. Smart routes win.

1. Start at the edge

Choose any exposed cell on the outside edge of the current board. There are no suggested starting points and no hidden hints.

2. Connect five

Drag through exactly five unique cells. Each next cell must touch the previous one above, below, left, or right. Diagonal moves and repeated cells do not count.

3. Chase the biggest sum

Your path score is the sum of its five numbers. When the round ends, CINCO reveals that board's best possible route so you can see how close you came.

4. Finish all five boards

Play Classic, Pyramid, Diamond, Orbit, and Crossroads. Your five round scores combine into one daily total. Everyone plays the same puzzle that day.

5. Share the result

Compare scores without spoiling the paths. Higher scores always rank first; when scores tie, the faster total time ranks first. A fresh five-board challenge arrives each day.
