Connect the numbers. Hit the target. Build your next great chain. Chain Math is a number puzzle game where quick thinking meets strategy. Connect neighboring tiles horizontally, vertically, or diagonally to match the target. Mix in minus tiles, multipliers, and wildcards to make every board your own. PLAY YOUR WAY Take your time in Classic or race the clock in four Timed games: 30 seconds, 1 minute, 2 minutes, or 5 minutes. Build consecutive matches into a combo and chase your personal best. A FRESH DAILY CHALLENGE Clear the daily board in Daily Clear. Race through five targets in Gauntlet. Find efficient chains and use fewer tiles in Par. Wind down with Nightcap on a calm, dark board, with no clock and no rush. STRATEGIC POWERUPS Freeze or slow the timer, connect non-adjacent tiles with Number Hop, reshuffle the board, or add minus tiles and wildcards.
