How many ways can you innovate on the matching colors formula? A lot of ways, apparently. First
Bear Eraser, then
Planet of the Jellies, and now Numbers. What Numbers does differently, however, is the focus on mathematical puzzling. The main mechanics are simple. You must clear blocks by setting them next to other blocks of the same color. The number on the blocks indicates how many of that color you have to group to get a clear (So 4, which is red, requires the player to group together at least 4 red blocks to clear them).
That's not all, however. Upon clearing blocks, all blocks touching the cleared ones change in number. This way, players can chain together clears by setting it up so that blocks change other nearby blocks into a clear. The download sits at around 25 mb and is well worth it for any puzzle fans.
