NMBR 9

Designed by Peter Wichmann

Challenge your mental acuity and test your dexterity with this puzzling game of strategic tile-stacking!

Numbers aren't worth anything in NMBR 9 unless they're off the ground floor and looking down from above. Tiles on higher levels of your stack score more points, but you must be careful how quickly you build upwards. Without a solid foundation, you’ll quickly run out of space for more valuable tiles.

The game includes twenty cards numbered 0-9 twice and eighty tiles numbered 0-9; each number tile is composed of squares in some arrangement. After shuffling the deck of cards, draw and reveal the first card. Each player takes a number tile matching the card and places it on the table. With each new card drawn after that, each player takes the appropriate number tile, then adds it to the tiles that they already have in play, with each player building their own arrangement of tiles.
