Target Number
Read full descriptionHide full description
A board of numbers. A target to reach. How will you get there? Target Number: Math Puzzle turns simple arithmetic into satisfying decisions. Tap a number, choose +, −, × or ÷, then tap another number anywhere on the board. Combine tiles, plan around the next number, and reach the target before your moves run out. MAKE EVERY MOVE COUNT Start with approachable puzzles and work toward more demanding combinations. Later challenges leave less room for spare moves, so a clever plan makes all the difference. CHASE THE PERFECT SOLVE Reach the target to clear a level. Meet its move and time goals to earn all three stars. There is no time limit for completing a puzzle: take your time, or challenge yourself to a faster solve. FOLLOW YOUR PATH Continue from where you left off, revisit an unlocked level, or find the stars you still have to earn. The replay browser keeps your place when you return from a puzzle. A LITTLE HELP WHEN YOU NEED IT Use Rewind to undo a merge, +1 Move to keep your board going, or Wild to change a tile. Earn teso through progress and optional rewarded ads, or buy teso packs in the store. Restarting is always free. PLAY AT YOUR PACE Enjoy a clean dark design, responsive tile animations and satisfying sound on iPhone and iPad. Puzzles work offline, and your progress and unfinished attempt are saved on your device. No account is required. One more target. One more good idea. Contains advertisements and optional in-app purchases. Ads and purchases require internet access. Progress is stored locally; account-based cloud sync is not included.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Target Number at every 3 days against Lights's every 6 weeks. Lights's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
