What is King of Numbers - Puzzle Master

Welcome to a world where only numbers matter. King of Numbers - Puzzle Master challenges you to turn a handful of digits into the exact target value using basic math.

How to Play

Your goal is to combine the given numbers using +, -, ×, and ÷ to produce the target number shown on each level. Select numbers and operators in sequence to form an equation that equals the goal, then submit to advance.

Tips for Playing

Start by identifying which two numbers can combine to get closest to the target, then adjust from there.
Remember that multiplication often jumps the value quickly, so use it sparingly when the target is small.
If you get stuck, try working backward from the target and see what operations could lead to it.
Keep an eye on the order of operations—the game follows standard math rules, so parentheses matter.
Take a breather and re-scan the board; a fresh look can reveal a simple solution you missed.
