Number Pop: a small joy of connecting numbers
Number Pop is a free number connection puzzle you can play on a phone or computer without installing anything. It is built for short breaks: find a path through the numbers, then hunt for longer links and longer combos. The game is available in English, Korean and Japanese.
How do I play?
Connect three or more adjacent numbers horizontally or vertically, each one exactly one higher than the last, such as 1 → 2 → 3 or 2 → 3 → 4. A single path can be up to five tiles long. Diagonal moves and skipped numbers are not allowed. Move back one tile to undo your last selection.
Two ways to play
- Score Challenge: start with 90 seconds. A 3-tile path scores 30 points, 4 tiles 50 and 5 tiles 80, and every connection adds time (0.9 to 2.4 seconds at level 1). Higher levels give less time but bigger multipliers, and bonus time is capped at 150 seconds per game. Build combos, trigger Popcorn Fever and collect end-of-game bonuses.
- Popbot Duel: take turns with Popbot on the same board. Links score 30, 50 or 80 points, plus 10 for linking within 3 seconds, and falling 100+ points behind earns a double-points catch-up turn. The first to reach 400, 700 or 1500 points wins. Your turn lasts 15, 10 or 8.5 seconds depending on the bot.
Daily Challenge
Every midnight (Korea time) everyone gets the same board. Make 20 links without hints for your best score, and finish once a day to grow your streak (🔥).
Hints and shuffling
Choose unlimited hints, one hint per 100 points (starting with one), or no hints. When no valid path remains, the board shuffles automatically.
