## What is Increment?

Increment is a fast, arcade-style mental math game that turns simple arithmetic into a test of speed and reflexes.

The rule is simple: you're shown a number and an instruction, such as "Add 1 to each digit." Type the transformed number before the timer runs out.

125 → 236

Easy? Now do it in a second and a half. Then the digits roll over, so 9 becomes 0. The increment grows to +2, then +3. The numbers get longer and the clock gets shorter.

VS: RACE A FRIEND
Play 10 numbers and send the link. Your friend gets the same 10 numbers with your time on the clock for each one, so every number is a race. The faster answer takes the point. Pick an avatar and your country flag; they appear on every challenge you send. Works between iPhone and Android, no account needed.

DAILY
One puzzle a day, the same 20 numbers for everyone. Keep your day streak going and share your result grid.
