Numberama 2 is coming! Rediscover the classic number puzzle that kept students hooked in the 80s and 90s — now rebuilt as a smooth, modern time-killer for iPhone and iPad. How to play Start a new game and you’ll see numbers from 1 to 19 (no zeros). Your goal is to clear the entire board by crossing out pairs of digits: Same numbers (e.g., 7 + 7) Numbers that add up to 10 (e.g., 9 + 1) Pairs can be crossed out when they are next to each other (horizontally or vertically), or in the same row/column with only empty spaces between them. Rewrite rule (important!) After you remove pairs, tap Rewrite to rebuild the remaining numbers into new lines. Sometimes certain digits (for example 9s) may not appear again after a rewrite — that’s not a bug. It’s part of the original rules and a key element of strategy: plan your moves to win. Features • Classic mode with numbers 1–19 (no zeros) • Random mode for advanced players • Fun achievements • Up to 20 undo steps — recover from mistakes anytime • Undo with a simple swipe • Detailed stats: score, time, lines, pairs, remaining pairs • Separate high scores for Classic and Random • Save your results to Photos / Camera Roll • Demo mode for training • Optimized for iPhone & iPad (Retina) • Game Center support
