A 2009 masterpiece ahead of its time
Released in the early days of the App Store by game studio Areacode, Drop7 was an absolute marvel of minimalist game design. Numbered discs dropped into a seven by seven grid, clearing whenever a disc's number matched the count of connected discs in its row or column.
The beauty was in the cascade. One clever placement could trigger four consecutive clears, cracking mysterious grey discs and opening up a board that seemed doomed.
The lineage to TenPair
That same thrill of cascading resolution lives on in TenPair. By scanning for pairs that equal ten across wrapped rows, every elimination shifts the geometry of adjacent numbers, opening up fresh combinations you could not see two turns prior.
Experience TenPair
A calm number-matching puzzle. Pair identical numbers or make ten, clear the board, and play at your own pace.
