A mathematical exercise with numbers for logic

This is a puzzle game that puts your arithmetic and logical reasoning to the test. Each level presents you with a set of numbers and a target value; your job is to use addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division to craft an equation that hits the mark. The beauty lies in the journey—there are often multiple paths to a solution, and finding the most elegant one is deeply satisfying. As you progress, the challenges become more intricate, introducing larger numbers, more required operations, and tighter constraints. You'll need to plan ahead, experiment with different combinations, and sometimes think sideways to crack the puzzle. It's a perfect mental workout for anyone who enjoys numbers, problem-solving, or just a good brain teaser to pass the time.
