The New York Times is launching a "Word" math game

Post by khatunmaya292 »

Play the math game 'Digits' on the NYT website. Now that the Word craze is dying down a bit, The New York Times is launching an addictive math game called Indicators . Despite my aversion to mathematics, I can already say that Indicators will take my life for at least a few weeks - it is a very stable tracking Word . The concept here is very simple, and it kind of reminds me of blackjack. Basically, Indicators gives you six numbers that you have to add, subtract, multiply and divide to reach a specific target number.


If you complete a challenge perfectly, you get Europe Mobile Number List three stars. And if you're a few points off the target number, you'll only get a star or two. (So ​​even if you "lose", it doesn't feel like you're really losing.) Interestingly, Indicators is partially based on TV game shows (as was Word ). Zoe Bell, executive producer of NYT Games, cites Numbers and Letters and The Report as major inspirations. Of course, Indicators also learns from Word , including daily challenges and the ability to play from a browser instead of an app. Open "Numbers" on mobile. Reading "Numbers" instructions on a smartphone.

Play 'Digits' on your smartphone. This game is still in beta and I've already seen a few bug reports from early adopters. That said, if a bug doesn't break the game, it won't be fixed during the beta. And as The New York Times explains, public acceptance of Indicators will decide the fate of this game. If the public is not interested in the game Indicators , it can be withdrawn, changed and started again. Or, it can just be thrown away. It is likely that the public reception will also be a deciding factor whether indicators will remain free or if it will require a subscription.
