How it feels

A calm, minimalist puzzle game where you carefully complete math equations in a crossword style, with randomly generated challenges and customizable themes.

What players say

Players like this math-crossword hybrid for quick puzzle sessions. The auto-save makes it easy to pick up, though normal mode feels easy and expert can be tough. Some players report unsolvable boards in expert mode and a broken achievement system. The developer announced the studio is closing and the game will be removed from sale.
