Number Match
About Number Match
Number Match is a puzzle game built around one satisfying challenge: hunt down pairs of numbers across a grid and clear the field to score as many points as possible. The pairs you're looking for are either identical numbers or two numbers whose sum equals 10. Every move chips away at the board, and the goal is to keep clearing until no numbers remain.
How to Play Number Match
The core rule is straightforward — find two numbers that are either the same or add up to 10. Every valid identical pair and every valid sum-to-10 pair is fair game:
Identical Pairs
- 1 + 1
- 2 + 2
- 3 + 3
- 4 + 4
- 5 + 5
- 6 + 6
- 7 + 7
- 8 + 8
- 9 + 9
Sum-to-10 Pairs
- 1 + 9
- 2 + 8
- 3 + 7
- 4 + 6
- 5 + 5
Pairs can be matched horizontally, vertically, or diagonally — but only when no other uncollected numbers sit between them. One extra connection to watch for: a number at the end of one row and a number at the start of the next row can also form a valid pair. When no more pairs exist on the board, tap the plus button to add a fresh set of numbers and keep the game going.
Controls
- Tap/Click a number: Select it as part of a pair
