About
Numbers rot. Count fast.
Rot is a real-time number puzzle where the board is alive. Every few seconds the numbers grow and decay — fresh green turns to creeping brown mold. Your job: merge adjacent cells that add up to exactly 10 and burn them away before a cell hits ten and bursts. Let too many burst and the board rots over — game over.
Easy to pick up, hard to put down.
- Select connected groups of neighboring cells
- Hit a sum of exactly 10 — burn it for points
- Don't let numbers reach 10 and rot the board
WAVES OF TENSION
The game breathes: calm stretches build into peaks of panic, then ease off again. It heats up over time, but always lets you catch your breath.
ABILITIES
Earn charges with clean burns and spend them wisely:
- Freeze — stops the growth for a few seconds
- Wind — burns an entire row
- ×2 — doubles the points of your next burn
- Compost — turns selected cells back into fresh sprouts
RISK AND GREED
- Ripeness — overripe cells score double, but they're about to burst
- Combos — back-to-back burns stack a multiplier up to ×5
- Quarantine — long-press to seal off a dangerous cell
HEAL THE WORLD
Every run's score fills a bank, and you spend it healing the world of rot — region by region on a living map. Stay away too long and the world starts creeping back. Come back and keep it alive.
- A living map with hundreds of regions
- Progress builds up in parts
- A weekly log of your contributions
CRAFTED WITH CARE

What's New in Rot
1.4
August 9, 2026
The rot got predictable. A little — and only if you ask for it. Foresight. A new setting: dots under a cell show how many ticks are left before it grows. Three dots means you have time to think. When they flare amber, it's about to. The game won't look further than three — slow cells stay quiet until the last moment. Turn it on in Settings; off by default. If you like counting blind, just don't touch it. Count before it spoils.
