Numora: Block Puzzle is a calm, elegant logic game where numbers meet space. Every puzzle shows you a grid dotted with numbered clues. Your job is simple to understand, satisfying to master: draw a rectangle around each clue so that the number of cells inside exactly matches the clue's value โ€” and cover the entire board with no overlaps. No luck, no timers pushing you around, just clean logic and a bit of spatial intuition. FEATURES โ€ข 100 handcrafted Normal levels, from a gentle 4x4 start to challenging 7x7 boards, with difficulty that grows naturally as you progress. โ€ข Toplama mode: some regions share a single combined clue, so you'll need to add before you draw. โ€ข Double mode: two independent puzzles overlap on the same board, solved layer by layer. โ€ข Play your way: classic 3-lives mode for a bit of tension, or switch to Zen mode and solve at your own pace with no penalty for mistakes. โ€ข A living, breathing board: intent-aware drawing corrects near-misses, smart touch handling, and satisfying completion animations. โ€ข Sit back and relax with a rotating library of original background music, or turn it off entirely โ€” it's your call. โ€ข Make it yours: 8 accent colors, dark and light appearances, and a fully translated interface in 16 languages. โ€ข Gentle haptic feedback while you draw, fully optional. โ€ข Occasional timed levels for players who want an extra challenge, complete with a countdown and a warning cue. Numora is designed to be picked up for two minutes or two hours โ€” a few calm puzzles on a commute, or a long, focused session when you want to think in shapes and numbers. No account, no sign-up, no pressure. Just open it and start solving.
