Tally Tiles
A one-minute number tile puzzle. Drag a path of touching tiles that adds up to the target. Every target is solvable.
How to play Tally Tiles
The board is a five-by-five grid of number tiles from 1 to 9, with a target number on a card above it. Drag through tiles that touch up, down, left or right, and let go when the path adds up to the target. The running sum shows as you drag. Drag back onto the previous tile to undo it.
An exact sum clears those tiles. The tiles above fall, new ones drop in, and you score the target times the number of tiles in your path, times your streak multiplier. Every two correct sums in a row raise the multiplier by one step, up to ×4. A wrong sum costs no points, but it resets the streak.
Every target is built from a real path on the board, so there is always an answer. Early targets use two tiles. As you solve more, targets can take up to four. Stuck? Tap the target card to skip it. A skip costs three seconds and the streak.
A run lasts 60 seconds. The grid, the targets and every new tile come from the daily seed, so every player gets the same numbers that UTC day.
