One puzzle a day. The whole world plays the same one. Nummix is a minimalist logic puzzle: a rack of pegs, a stack of colored number blocks, and a target pattern. Easy to learn, endlessly deep. HOW TO PLAY • Tap or drag to move the top block of any peg. • Every peg has limited space — plan ahead, or you'll jam the rack. • Match the target pattern in as few moves as possible. THE DAILY PUZZLE Every day at midnight, everyone on Earth gets the same puzzle. One attempt. Solve it, beat par, and share your spoiler-free result. Build a streak — and keep shared streaks alive with friends who play too. WHAT'S INSIDE • Daily Puzzle — one shot, one global puzzle, shareable results • Streaks — solo streaks, milestones, and shared streaks with friends • Campaign — 200+ handpicked levels across themed worlds, with locked blocks, restricted pegs and color rules to twist the formula • Endless — procedurally generated puzzles that scale with your skill, forever • Zen Mode — no timer, no counter, unlimited undo. Just you and the blocks • Duels — challenge a friend or get matched: same puzzle, fastest solve wins • Leaderboards & Leagues — climb weekly leagues from Bronze to Diamond • Ghost replays — watch exactly how your rival solved it, move by move FAIR BY DESIGN Every puzzle is verified solvable, and par — the true minimum number of moves — is computed for each one. Three stars means you matched the machine. Can you? MADE FOR YOUR POCKET • A puzzle takes 30 seconds to 3 minutes — perfect for a coffee break • One-thumb play: tap or drag, whatever feels right • Campaign and Zen work fully offline • Colorblind-friendly: every block is numbered, never color-only • No energy system. No lives. No paywall blocking play. Free to play. Numbers up. Blocks down. See you at midnight.
