You get an N×N grid with walls (darker cells) and a green S (start) and golden G (goal). Draw a path from S to G using only giraffe moves — a (1,4) leaper that jumps 1 square in one direction and 4 in the other. Each puzzle has a unique shortest path. Find it in the minimum number of moves for 3 stars!

How To Play Giraffe Path
You get an N×N grid with walls (darker filled cells are impassable), a green S marker (start), and a golden G marker (goal).
Your task is to draw a path from S to G using only giraffe moves: (r±1, c±4) or (r±4, c±1). A giraffe is a fairy-chess leaper that jumps 1 square in one direction and 4 squares perpendicular.
Tap the green S marker to begin. The path starts there.
Tap any cell that's a giraffe-move away from your last cell to extend the path.
You cannot step on walls (darker filled cells) or revisit a cell.
Reach the G marker to win. Each puzzle has a unique shortest path — solve in the minimum number of moves for 3 stars!
Controls:
Tap / click — extend the path to a giraffe-reachable cell.
U / Backspace — undo last step.
Enter — check whether your path reaches the goal.
R — restart the level.
H — reveal one cell along the optimal path (3 hints per level).
Esc — back to level select.
Scoring: 3 stars for finishing in the optimal number of moves with no hints. Sub-optimal paths still complete the level but with fewer stars.
