Numberlink Puzzle is a game that brings peace and focus to your mind. I've played it countless times, and whenever I need to step away from busy thoughts, focusing on connecting numbers gradually brings me back to a calm state. There's even a strange satisfaction when completing a complex puzzle.
If you're looking for some quiet alone time right now, or simply want to challenge your logical thinking, take a moment to see if this game can bring you some joy.
Game Modes
We currently offer two game modes, allowing you to choose based on your mood and preferences:
Classic Mode: This is our carefully designed collection of levels, each tested repeatedly to ensure appropriate difficulty and challenge. If you're new to Numberlink Puzzle, we recommend starting here to gradually familiarize yourself with the game.
YOLO Mode: "Your challenge, your choice" — this mode lets you freely select the grid size (from 2×4 to 3×8) and difficulty level (Easy, Medium, Hard). Want to relax? Choose a small grid. Want a brain workout? Challenge yourself with large grids on hard difficulty. It's all up to you.
Level Selection & Button Guide
After entering a game mode, you'll see the level selection screen. In Classic Mode, levels are arranged in order, and you can start from level one. In YOLO Mode, levels are categorized by grid size, with different difficulty levels available for each size.
Each level button displays a number. If you've completed a level, the button will show a golden border with a checkmark. Clicking on a completed level button reveals your best record — including star rating and completion time.
This design lets you clearly track your game progress and makes it easy to revisit levels where you want to beat your record.
Star Rating & Completion Celebration
After completing a puzzle, the system awards you one to three stars based on your completion time. The rating standards adjust with grid size — larger grids give you relatively more time.
When you successfully complete a level, a celebration animation appears: stars pop out one by one, accompanied by colorful confetti and cheerful sound effects. This little celebration is our reward for every player who completes a challenge.
In the completion dialog, you can see your time (displayed as mm:ss) and the number of stars earned. Not satisfied with your score? Choose "Play Again" to retry. Ready to move forward? Click "Next Level"!

The App version will offer:
