Number Salad

Number Salad is a daily math puzzle where your mission is to combine a grid of numbers using addition to reach a target sum.

You're presented with a selection of numbers and a set of goal numbers. Your job is to select numbers from the grid that add up exactly to that target. Tap numbers to add them to your running total, then submit when you think you've nailed it.

• Select numbers from the grid by tapping them.
• Your running total updates as you add each number.
• Hit the target sums exactly to complete the puzzle.
• Each number can only be used once per attempt.
• A new puzzle drops every day with a fresh grid and target.

The challenge ramps up as grids get larger and targets get trickier. Sometimes the path is obvious. Other times you'll need to rethink your approach and find a combination you missed.

Why we like it:

• ✅Pure mental math with no tricks or timers to stress you out.
• ✅That little dopamine hit when the numbers click into place.
• ✅Quick enough to squeeze into any break, but satisfying enough to feel like a real win.

Hint: Start by scanning for larger numbers that get you close to the target, then fill in the gap with smaller ones. Working backwards from the goal is often faster than adding up from zero.
