Numphabet? How do you even say that?

Akao

Num-phabet — number plus alphabet. A=1, B=2, all the way to Z=26. A word shows up and you build it out of number cards.

So for CAT I just tap 3, 1 and 20? That sounds easy.

Akao

The board always holds more cards than the word needs. And some cards do the arithmetic first, like 9+5. Others count the alphabet backwards — Z↔A.

Onaga

Backwards? So 1 becomes Z? My head hurts already.

Akao

Some cards do both at once. The hard part is never the arithmetic — it is finding the one right card. Still building it, and I post the progress on X.

Features

  • A=1 … Z=26. Complete each word with the number cards that become its letters, left to right.
  • Cards that do the arithmetic first (9+5), cards that run the alphabet backwards (Z↔A), and cards that do both.
  • Every board carries at least four decoys, and most of them sit within one or two of a real answer — you cannot spot them at a glance.
  • 60 seconds a run, across three difficulties: Easy, Normal and Hard.

Modes

  • Score AttackHow far can you get in 60 seconds? Separate bests and leaderboards for Easy, Normal and Hard.
  • Daily ChallengeFive questions, the same for everyone, refreshed at 00:00 UTC. Replay as often as you like.
  • Ranked Battle1v1 on an identical board, first to 5 points. Coming in a later build.
