Number Series — the complete help guide

Number Series is a collection of number puzzles and brain games for Android. This guide explains how to get around the app and how to play each game — one topic per page, in plain words, using the same names you see on screen.

Number Series has a lot of games in it, and they are deliberately different from each other: some are calm and untimed, some race the clock, some are one puzzle a day and some never end. This guide walks through all of them.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I start if I have never played?
Open the Play tab and tap Challenges for today's Daily Challenge, or New game for Classic. Your very first puzzle walks you through how it works, and every mode shows a short tutorial the first time you open it.
Do I need an account?
No. You can play every mode without signing in. Signing in with Google adds cloud backup of your progress and the Friends features.
Can I see a mode's rules again later?
Yes. Every game screen has an info button in the top right corner that opens the rules, and Settings → Game → Reset Game Tutorials brings back all the first-time tutorials.
