Pivots is a game about racing the clock to add rows and columns of numbers to 15. It uses a unique new mechanic of rotating 2x2 squares in a larger 5x5 grid of numbers. Find patterns, add the numbers, and rotate to score high. If you like sudoku you'll love Pivots. As you get matches you add time to the clock to keep going, failed moves will subtract time. As you progress, each level speeds up the clock and adds a multiplier to your scoring. Race against the clock and see how far you can go.
