THREE GAMES, THREE WAYS TO THINK Path — Draw a single continuous line connecting numbered dots in order, filling every cell on the board. Simple to learn, surprisingly deep to master. Balance — A binary logic puzzle. Fill the grid with two symbols so every row and column stays balanced, with no three in a row. Pure deduction, no guessing.
