USS Enterprise (CVN 65)

The Shuttle

In a Slitherlink Puzzle, you connect horizontally or vertically adjacent dots to form a meandering path that forms a single loop, without crossing itself, or branching. The numbers indicate how many lines surround each cell. Empty cells may be surrounded by any number of lines (from 0 to 3) There is one unique solution, and you should be able to find it without guessing. You may find it helpful to make small x’s between dots that cannot be connected.
