NumGrid review
A new number puzzle every day.
The review
NumGrid is a daily number-deduction puzzle in the Numberle family: there is a secret five-digit number and you have six guesses to find it. Each guess returns Wordle-style feedback — green for a digit in the right position, yellow for a digit that’s in the number but misplaced, grey for a digit that isn’t there at all.
What separates NumGrid from a plain digit-Wordle is that it hands you two free constraints before you start: the digit sum and the parity (odd or even) of the hidden number. Those two facts turn the puzzle from blind guessing into a genuine search-space-narrowing exercise — you can rule out large blocks of candidates on paper before you ever spend a guess. It’s Mastermind logic with arithmetic scaffolding.
The appeal is for players who prefer numbers to vocabulary but still want the one-puzzle-a-day cadence. There’s no time pressure, so it plays as a quiet logic break rather than a reflex game; the math is light arithmetic, but the deduction can get genuinely tricky when the digit sum admits many combinations.
Best for: People who love the Wordle format but would rather reason about numbers than words.
Verdict: A clean daily number puzzle that respects your guesses — the sum-and-parity hints make it deduction, not luck.
