NUMBER MATCHPanko's Number Grove
Clear the board by pairing numbers that total ten.
How to play
- Choose two numbers that add up to exactly 10.
- They must share a row or column, with no occupied tile between them. Diagonal pairs do not count.
- Clear every pair to unlock the next grove.
Hint highlights a legal pair without playing it. Undo restores your last cleared pair. Reorder rearranges remaining tiles; Restart resets this grove. The first four groves use 4×6 boards; groves 11–20 grow to 5×6 and groves 21–30 to 6×6. A common mistake is choosing a pair that totals 10 but is blocked by another tile: the values stay on the board until they share a clear row or column. Reorder costs a move and rebuilds the remaining pairs when no useful line is open.
FAQ
- Why can two equal values not clear?
- Equal values are not a pair unless both are five; every legal pair must total ten and share a clear row or column.
- Do diagonal pairs count?
- No, pairs use adjacency or a straight horizontal or vertical sight line.
- What does Reorder do?
- It rearranges the remaining values without changing the sum-to-ten rule.
- Are stages timed?
- No, you can inspect the board at your own pace.
- Which controls and screen sizes are supported?
- The same rules support touch, mouse, and keyboard where the game uses those inputs. The interface scales as one logical layout across the required phone, landscape, and desktop viewports.
- Can progress move automatically to another device?
- No. This game currently saves to local browser storage only, so another browser profile or device begins with its own separate local progress unless a future account system is added.
