Gridlock is a fast, brain-teasing number puzzle. Tap the tiles that add up to the target and clear them before the grid fills up. Simple to learn, tough to master, and easy to pick up again. Think fast. The grid won't wait. HOW IT PLAYS • A target number sits at the top. Tap any tiles that sum to it to clear them. • New tiles keep dropping in. Clear fast, or the board locks up. That's gridlock. • Chain quick clears, keep the grid breathing, and push for your best score. MAKE IT YOUR GAME • Grid sizes from tiny to large, for bite-sized puzzles or sprawling boards. • Speeds from Relaxed to Fast: a calm number-cruncher or a white-knuckle sprint. • Moving Target: the goal keeps hopping, so you can never autopilot. • Speed-Up: spawns accelerate the longer you survive. • No Errors: one wrong tap ends the run. For the fearless. • Multiply mode: reach the target by multiplying instead of adding. • Color the tiles by number, or hide the numbers entirely and play by color alone. BUILT TO FEEL GOOD • Clean, minimal design that stays out of your way. • Snappy haptics and genuinely satisfying clears. • Every setting keeps its own high score, so every way you play is its own challenge. • Pick up and play in seconds. Portrait, one-handed, anywhere. No accounts. No sign-ups. No nagging timers. Just you and the numbers. Prefer it ad-free? Remove ads anytime with a single one-time purchase.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Twist Hit! at 54K against Gridlock's 1. Twist Hit! also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Gridlock's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
