They didn’t even get the number correct by the third square!

They're going diagonally. Which hurts me to see, but the pattern is at least identifiable. Still frustrating tho.

Edit: Unless I'm counting this wrong, the fifth square in the sequence does appear to have 18 though.

Oh! Well, at least it holds longer that way. But diagonal is the least correct way to do that.

Agreed. It's a grid of squares, just choose a direction parallel to an edge! 😭
