Tott

Tott is a daily maths puzzle. Number tiles, one target, and one rule: hit it exactly.

HOW IT WORKS • Pick two tiles, then + − × or ÷. They merge into one new tile. • Keep merging to one tile. If it matches the target, the board is solved.

Every result is exact: 10 ÷ 3 makes 10/3, never 3.33. A fraction can still lead to the target.

Many boards have more than one route. Find every route for gold.

WAYS TO PLAY

The Daily • One new puzzle a day, the same for everyone. It changes at midnight, your time. • Streak freezes are earned by playing, never bought. • Share your routes as a row of squares. No spoilers.

The Journey • Eight chapters of boards, at your own pace. No timer. • 5 take-backs a board. Stuck with none left? Start the board again, free. • Chapters 1 to 4 are free. Chapters 5 to 8 come with Tott Plus.

The Gauntlet • Boards one after another, harder as you climb. • 3 undos and 3 hints a run. When you're stuck with no undos left, the run ends.

Timed • Race the clock: 2 minutes for stage 1, then 10 seconds less a stage, down to 30 seconds. • Time you save carries over.

Math Lit and Pro • The target starts as a clue. Math Lit: squares and roots, percentages, fractions and the order of operations. Pro, with Tott Plus: equations for x and short real-world problems, with 3 undos and 3 hints a run. • Crack the clue one part at a time, then make its answer on the board. Nothing to type. • Each clear adds a block to your tower. Clean clears build a combo, up to ×10. Three hearts a run. • Build it, with Tott Plus: the answer is given. Fill the blanks so the equation holds.

The Gauntlet, Timed, Math Lit and Pro each have one ranked run a day, the same boards for everyone. Practice is never ranked.

BEADS • Earned by playing, in every mode. Packs are sold too. • Spent in Math Lit only: an extra undo, a Step, or one more heart in a practice run. • A ranked Math Lit run asks before your first buy. After it, the run isn't sent to the leaderboards.
