Where to start
This board has 2 openings where only a single route is possible, so those numbers are forced:
- The 1 in row 7 and the 3 in row 5 are exactly 2 steps apart, and only one 2-step route connects them — so 2 is forced.
- The 11 in row 4 and the 13 in row 2 are exactly 2 steps apart, and only one 2-step route connects them — so 12 is forced.
