Smarter than you think, easier than you expect...

The Number is an expert mix of mechanics: Bluffing, Risk-taking, but also Guessing (a mechanic that involves anticipating your opponent’s next moves and adapting your strategy accordingly).

First - Choose
Each turn, everyone secretly writes a number from 000 to 999 on their boards, then reveals them at the same time.

2 - Check
Line up the numbers from biggest to smallest and check if your number is approved (it doesn’t share digits with any of the numbers below it) or eliminated (at least one digit in common with any of the numbers below it).

3 - Resolve
If your number is approved, gain as many points as the first digit of your number. Then, you must cross off the digits you used in your number from your board. You will not be able to use them for the rest of the round.

It's so quick you will not be able to decide at first if you like it or not. So the best way to sort this dilemma is to try it a few times online by reaching the game page, available by clicking the link below:
