Hidato

Hidato ( , originating from the Hebrew word Hida=Riddle), also known as Hidoku, is a logic puzzle game invented by Dr. Gyora M. Benedek, an Israeli mathematician. The goal of Hidato is to fill the grid with consecutive numbers that connect horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. The name Hidato is a registered trademark. Some publishers use different names for this puzzle (and variants), such as Number Snake, Snakepit (both of which play on the game's similarity in concept to the video game Snake), Jadium, and Numbrix.
