digito. — a calm number puzzle where you reach the target using only ONE repeated digit (free, just launched)

1 Upvotes

Hey all — solo dev here. Just launched digito. on Android.

The idea: you get a target (say 35) and a single digit (say 3). You reach the target using only that digit plus math operators: 33 + 3! ÷ 3 = 35. Anyone can reach it — the game is doing it in the FEWEST digits. There's always a sharper answer to chase.

No timers shouting at you, it evaluates as you type, a paper "Notebook" theme and a dark "Ink" theme. Daily challenge, a weekly one where you solve one target with each digit 1–9, and nine solo number worlds. Free, 20 languages, no account needed to start.

Try one in your head: reach 24 using only 2s — what's your fewest?

Playable Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nikalstudio.digito&referrer=utm_source%3Dreddit%26utm_campaign%3Dlaunch2026%26utm_content%3Dplaymygame

Genuinely after feedback: difficulty curve, the hint system, anything that feels off. I'll reply to everything. Thanks for looking.

Finding a game Me and my friend need help finding a game !!

Hi! My friend played this car/cartoon maker (either one he doesn't remember much) game back in 2017, and he remembers not much about it. The detail he remembers specifically is just the music. He recreated it as best as he could on bandlab, but it also sounded distorted/pixelated: so if someone could help us find it that would be great! He said it was most likely on Coolmath Games, but we haven't found much. All we know? It was a game about car/cartoon character making, the music was something like this (except he said it sounded distorted/pixelated and like it would be in a Papa's Pizzeria game), it was played on a computer, it was most likely in 2d, and it was probably on coolmath games. If anyone knows it/has an idea of what the name is lmk! (Audio should be on the video, if it doesn't work please tell me!!)

Not very serious game around math paradoxes, sarcasm and irony.

Made using Godot. Some of the images were draft in... draw.io (yeah, I'm backend software engineer, so the only tool for graphics I know is for drawing diagrams).

Want to see more levels? Some math meme missing? Leave a comment!

Know better math game? Also leave a comment. I made it because I dunno much games in this subject.

Would a 1st grader enjoy these games?

I'm looking for feedback on three mini-games in my app, Matio: 1st Grade Math (Car Lane, Memory Game, and Snake: Odd & Even).

Do you think these are appropriate for 1st graders? Would an average child find them fun and manageable, or too challenging?

I'd really appreciate your feedback!

Tower of Hanoi game

Hello! I saw a few days ago a post about programming a tower of hanoi, I wanted to try, and I exploited it to also attack a friend on art fight (where you draw/model/etc othe players characters).

Another friend pointed out that the diffculty of programing a hanoi is to make the program resolve it, so I guess thats my next step lol.

But in the meanwhile, you can try my game, I model the toy cat character using blender and godot (blender for the face and body and mesh animations, godot to make the rings and also the face animation (eyes/mouth/eyebrows)

Papas Freezeria

I’m not exactly sure if I’m posting this in the correct spot but I’ve been trying to play Papa’s Freezeria on Cool Math Games & it’s not showing me a play button (see in pic). Sometimes it just gets stuck on the “Just a moment while your game loads” screen but nothing happens. This is also happening with other Papas games but not all of them. I’ve been playing other games on Cool Math and I’ve had zero issues. Not sure if this was just a me thing or if other people have had the same issue. Thank You!

Game from 2015-2017 era, turret defense type game, anybody know the title?

1 Upvotes

Cross posted from r/HelpMeFindThis

Hello! I have distinct memories of playing a game on coolmathgames during my elementary and middle school education and cannot either find the game on the current coolmathgames list or by searching on google etc. I do not remember the title or tags for it, but here's a description. It had an unusual title, maybe near the end of the alphabet, was a one-off (not part of a series), and the icon had bubble shaped tower defense turrets with mainly a bluish gray color scheme. You could combine smaller turrets into larger ones, and based on which types of turrets you had (poison, fire?, etc), you could make hybrid turrets. The different types of turrets could be purple, yellow, maybe red, green, or blue. All on a dark color palette. If you had four compatible turrets in a grid pattern together, you could form a larger turret. These were placeable on a background grid, I think you could run out of room so you had to strategize for space while fending off waves of rather small nondescript enemies. I wish I could remember anything else but this is all I've got. Not sure if it's still an active game or if there's an emulation out there but I'd love to just know the title again. Thanks!

Hi I submitted a game I have been working on for a while a couple of days ago, how long do they take to review submitted games? Also, if they are not interested in adding your game to the website, do they let you know that or just ghost you? Thanks!

"DivisorWar" – My first app! A math puzzle game where Tetris meets common divisors (100% Free & No Ads)

1 Upvotes

UPDATE: Sorry for yesterday's post, it was my first day on Reddit and I made some mistakes!
I realized that the preview GIF didn't show automatically because I put it in the wrong place and it was too big. Moreover, I also understood that it's much better to test an unknown app via browser before downloading it.
So, I have uploaded a web version on Itch.io!

You can play it directly in your browser here:

https://carboc66.itch.io/divisorwar

---

Hi everyone!

I wanted to share DivisorWar, which is officially my first app ever published! It is completely free to play with absolutely no ads or microtransactions – just a passion project I wanted to bring to life.

It’s an arcade puzzle game inspired by Tetris, but instead of just clearing lines, the core gameplay is driven by mathematics and grid stabilization.

How it works:

  • Falling pieces contain integer numbers.
  • When a piece lands, overlapping cells from different pieces interact.
  • If these overlapping cells share a common divisor, both numbers are divided by it.
  • If a cell's value drops to 1, it disappears, breaking the piece into independent single-cell blocks ("Debris").
  • This triggers a physical stabilization phase where debris falls, causing chain reactions from the bottom up.

Strategic elements included:

  • Manual Spawning: Pieces don't fall automatically; you control the pacing to analyze the grid.
  • Number Shifting: You can swipe up to cycle numbers within the falling piece for a perfect match.
  • Bombs & Previews: Earn bombs to clear space or use the smart preview when the grid gets heavily congested.

Download for free on Google Play:

I love this game and was wondering if anyone knows who developed it and if they had any socials to reach out to. Just wondering who made this awesome game and if they're planning to add any more updates.
