How do I play Number Match 10?

Click on a number, then click an adjacent number (up, down, left, or right). If the two numbers add up to 10, they are eliminated from the board. Numbers above the gap fall down, and new numbers fill in from the top.

What numbers can be matched?

Any two adjacent numbers that sum to exactly 10 can be matched. For example: 1+9, 2+8, 3+7, 4+6, and 5+5. Same numbers (like two 5s) also count since 5+5=10.

What happens when there are no more moves?

When no adjacent pair on the board sums to 10, the game is over. You can use the Refill button to add new rows of numbers to create more matching opportunities, or start a new game.

How does the combo system work?

When numbers fall after a match and new adjacent pairs that sum to 10 are automatically formed, you earn combo points. Each consecutive combo multiplies your score bonus. Chain combos for maximum points!
