Three minutes a day. Today's Daily Challenge, and yesterday's score to beat. Drop a number on its match and it doubles the moment they touch. Pick a column, let go, and watch one merge set off the next. OUR THREE PROMISES • Free to start. No subscription (Premium is a one-time purchase) • No third-party ads (the free version only introduces the developer's other apps) • Your records stay on your device. No account and no data collection Number Drop is a falling number-merge puzzle: drop, stack and double. Over flashy effects, it values the fun of thinking one move at a time and the satisfying "pop" of a merge. HOW TO PLAY • Drop the next number into any of five columns • When it touches the same number above, below or beside it, they merge and double • Touch two matches at once and it jumps ×4 • If the new number matches a neighbor, it merges again — that's a chain • When the stack reaches the ceiling and nothing fits, your run ends FEATURES • Daily Challenge — numbers set by the date, one 3-minute score attack per day • Classic — play until the stack tops out; quit anytime and continue later • Endless — no ending and no score, just dropping and stacking • Guided practice — six moves with a guide explaining how to think about each one • Preview of the next two numbers, plus a dotted landing guide on your column • Number themes in traditional Japanese colors: Indigo, Crimson, Bamboo, Ink and Colorful. Colors deepen as numbers grow, and 2048 turns black and gold • Soft "tap" and "pop" sounds with haptics, and three chain-animation speeds • Result card — share your Daily Challenge result as an image • Stats: personal best, top tile and Daily Challenge streak GREAT FOR • Fans of 2048-style number puzzles • A few spare minutes on a commute or a break • A game with a clear ending, right before bed • Anyone who prefers a calm, clean look over flashy effects • Players who find color-matching games hard — numbers are the markers, so you never rely on color PLAY WITH PEACE OF MIND • Plays offline • No energy (lives) system and no paying to continue FREE & PREMIUM Free: the Daily Challenge (once a day, 3 minutes), Classic runs (2 per day), the Indigo theme and basic stats. The free version shows introductions to other apps by the developer (TORANKIRITE).
