About the game

Follow the winding numbered board by selecting 1 through 16. Check the next number and avoid five incorrect selections.

Follow the numbered winding board

Family Board Dash is a timed number-search game laid out on a winding four-by-four board. Find 1, select it, then find 2 wherever it appears. Continue through 16. A correct selection clears its numbered symbol and adds 60 points. Clear all sixteen within 120 seconds and before the fifth incorrect selection ends the attempt.

The winding line connects board positions, but it does not prescribe the order of the shuffled numbers. The buildings and central figure are decoration. This version does not draw movement cards or move a team of pieces home.

Use the number, not the path direction

What is visible	How to use it
Find 1, then the next requested number	This is the target for your next tap.
Sixteen numbered stops across four rows	Scan all rows; the next number may be far from the last one.
A connecting path and coloured icons	These provide the layout, not movement rules or a colour-matching task.
Remaining	It falls by one when a correct number clears.
Score	Each correct number adds 60; all sixteen produce 960.
Errors out of 5	Selecting the wrong uncleared stop raises this count. The fifth ends the round.

Begin and confirm your first input

Select Start game and wait for the countdown. Find the stop marked 1 and tap inside its symbol. Score 60 and Remaining 15 confirm acceptance. Then read Find 2 and scan the other rows before tapping again.

Use a fresh click or tap for each target. Dragging along the winding line does not move the figure or collect several numbers. A cleared stop or empty part of the board does not advance the task.

Watch the Time counter above the board. Use Pause before stepping away and Resume when you return. After selecting 16, a successful round shows Run complete, Score 960 and Remaining 0. If the clock expires or you reach five errors, Play again starts a new attempt.

Solve common confusion

Problem	Why it happens	Next action
The next stop along the line causes an error	The path's position order is different from the shuffled numeric order.	Read Find, then locate that number anywhere on the board.
The building or figure does not move	They are illustrations in this version.	Select a numbered stop instead.
Dragging appears to do nothing after the first press	Only the initial press checks a stop.	Release and make separate selections.
A stop remains after a flash	It was selected out of order and has not cleared.	Avoid repeatedly pressing it; find the correct number.
Tiny labels are hard to distinguish	The narrow-screen board stretches the canvas and compresses the digit width.	Avoid guessing and try a larger screen until the interface is improved.

Practise reading the whole board

For your next attempt, clear 1–4 without an error. Score 240 and Remaining 12 confirm that checkpoint. Scan row by row rather than tracing the line. Extend that routine to 8 and then 16. There is no separate team-goal or deck-exhaustion condition to manage.

Use the existing Card category or all-games directory if you want a different task. Read each game's own controls before playing; the category label alone does not establish matching rules.
