Game Giveaway of the day — Numericon

There is very simple idea lying at the heart of Numericon: it’s necessary to build the chains of numbers in such manner that the last one would equal the sum of the previous ones. It is easy to learn, but hard to master. And won’t the simplicity of the first levels deceive anyone - the further the player gets in to the game, the more challenging it becomes and it’s more interesting to play it.

Space Way is a pixel game with 8-bit music on a space theme.

There is very simple idea lying at the heart of Numericon: it’s necessary to build the chains of numbers in such manner that the last one would equal the sum of the previous ones. It is easy to learn, but hard to master. And won’t the simplicity of the first levels deceive anyone - the further the player gets in to the game, the more challenging it becomes and it’s more interesting to play it. The time lessens and the bonuses gradually turn from entertainment in to serious instrument, which helps to manage the level in the most effective way.

It’s necessary to mark the Puzzle regime, which will undoubtedly attract those who like to solve puzzles. It’s pretty pleasant addition to the game where it’s necessary to solve refined logical tasks without paying attention to the time limit and without vain hunting on the bonuses. Easy and with pleasure.

I just stumbled into your website, and I think is a terrific way to promote new pc games. After reading all the comments for this day, let me say that some people just like to complain; if they are not getting the type games they like, that's too bad - go and buy them, but don't complain when you are getting a free game. As for my taste, I can't wait until you give away the next WORD game, because I love them; it would also be really cool if you would repeat the Key Words and the Numericon give away, because I am pretty sure that a lot of people that just learned about your program would love to have those two games. Keep this giveaway program alive pleeeeaaaseee!

Installed the game, I like the idea of it, but the time runs down too quick. It counts the seconds almost 3 times faster than regular time. I might have a very fast computer??? LOL

I downloaded the Numercon game, and really do like it! But it shows me that I have only 40 minutes left on the game, and I must buy it. Why is that? Thanks for the freebie anyway, I just wish it wouldn't go away.

Dear Jenna,
The registration code is different for everybody and you're not supposed to type in one but it says clearly that you need read the reame.txt.If you want to know you'll have to buy it.
Why didn't you read it? Because you were too excited that you forgot the important things.Anyway this only tells you to comment about software.So make sure you read everything! Anyway don't listen to duh because the name means dumb. All he says is to read.What?!Books?
duh is dumb very very dumb.

I downloaded the game yesterday, activated & installed as directed. I got the succesful activation message. I played at two different times yesterday - no problem. To day, I get a screen asking me to buy or saying that I have only 60 minutes left to play. I always read the "readme" file, because sometimes you run the activation program then install, other times install then run the activation. Some programs have a code, and some have a code and a registration name. It seems I am not the only one with this problem ... GGOTD, L*O*V*E your site ....

Helen,
my guess would be that the activation sequence hasn’t been performed successfully. Activation program always reports success or failure, unfortunately it looks like you haven't paid attention to that, and the game remained unregistered, I'm sorry.

Hello,
I downloaded and registered the game Numericon yesterday. I quite enjoyed playing it, and was very disappointed when it cut out and said that the trial had expired. What happened?
Thank you

I had trouble with the screen buttons sticking in the tutorial also, the first time I ran the game. I forget now what I did - either I Alt-F4'ed it, or maybe I just let it run out the time. Anyway, the second time I tried, it worked just fine.

Pretty neat game and game idea, but I *think* I'll get bored with it pretty soon, just making math sequences over and over. Not sure. Thanks, GGOTD!

I think your site is wonderful. I have down loaded two games and it is nice to have games without blood and gore. Fighting is not my style. The music and the graphics are great. And I like to be able to play this without taking up the whole screen. I have also downloaded some terrific programs for my computer from the other featured programs from the software utilities. If there are some who don't like what you offer they should go buy what they want and not complain that they don't like what you offer. But I suppose there will always be those who are dissatisfied. SIGH!!!!!!!!!!!GET A LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!1

I realy like this game and the other game keywords, a nice change of pace from the first person shooters and rpgs. Also as a side note to people wanting stuff from big commercial companys its not likely to happen, The already have demos for games. Why would they give stuff away when they already have a big time budget for games and commercials. This site gives the smaller developers a chance to get there names out there and to get known. Great job guys keep up the good work!

Re: #42 Penroze:
It's telling you the desktop icon and/or Start menu shortcut isn't pointing to correct file. Very strange that you say you have not moved the file, as that should only occur if you DID move the file. Can't say why it's occuring otherwise, none of these three games have done that on my computer. But it should be an easy fix. Try this:

1. Click Start, then Search, then Files or Folders
2. In the search box type in "numericon.exe" (without the quotes), click OK to search.
3. When it finds the file make a note of the path (C:\Numericon\numericon.exe or whatever the search finds)
4. Right click either the desktop icon or Start menu item that previously started the game, then left click "Properties".
5. In the box labeled "Target" type in the path found from Search, Example: C:\Numericon\numericon.exe
6. Make sure the correct drive is listed in the box labeled "Start In", it should be the drive letter minus the file name, Example: C:\Numericon Click OK.

Once the correct path is restored it should start fine from either the desktop icon or Start menu shortcut, whichever you are using. Do taht for each of the games that is giving you an invalid command line parameter error.

If Search doesn't find anything when you type in "numericon.exe" it's because you have file extensions hidden. (Extension would be the ".exe" part of the file name.) In that case try just typing "numericon" in Search, and leave the .exe extension out when searching for the other games as well, if including it doesn't find the file.

I preferred the keywords game...maybe it's just that making words is more interesting than sums. I was bored a minute into this game. The music is soooo low key. Also I was able to do the sums so easy, there doesn't seem to be a challenge to it, compared to keywords which is hard since possible words are harder to think of than simple sums like 1+1=2.

Now for young ones this may be more interesting(age 7-9).

For all of those people who like to complain about the games that they give us for FREE on this website, let me remind you that they are FREE!!! If people keep on complaining because they don't get the game they want, then the people who take care of this website might just close it down!! I am so sick and tired of people complaining about what they don't have or what they want!! The GAOTD team is doing an awesome job on giving us FREE games when they do not have to!! Be thankful for what you get, I know I am!!!! THANK YOU, GAOTD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This looks like something similar to the new Sudoku-type number game. I forgot the name because I had it in my history and one of the downloads deleted it. Eventually, I'll find it, but this will be great for the interim and a variation when I find the similar online game. Thanks.

I like the game, but have the same difficulty as was mentioned by someone earlier. When the tutorial for Adventure reaches the third step, it freezes. I tried uninstalling and re-downloading. It didn't help. I, too, would like to know how to turn off that tutorial to see if it might begin to work. Thanks for the generous daily gifts.

I just downloaded and activated this game. It ran at first. Then I closed it and reopened it and it wouldn't start. I get the same error message I got with KeyWords and Dragon.

Error: Invalid Command Line Param: Files\Numericon\Numericon.exe

I have Windows XP Home Edition. The other games I've downloaded have worked. I didn't move the file or anything. I installed it to the default location. And all three games played very well until I restarted them.

LMAO! Anyone confused by that 8) in my post? I sure was, :D and of course there's no 8) in the game to click.

That should have said "...either click “Submit” or just double click the last number in the sequence, the 8, to submit". Apparently typing the number 8 and then putting parens after it comes up on this site as a smiley wearing shades.

One more note. Apparently it doesn't matter the color of the falling jewel in the game. Whether or not it's possible to catch depends upon the part of the board from which it falls. Just caught some pink ones with no trouble, but a blue one falling from the bottom was too fast to catch.

Nice puzzle game and the graphics look great! There's an ornate old book with dogeared/withered pages, a feathered quill pen that changes depending on play mode, an old fashioned sand timer, nice colors and beautiful backgrounds. Unlike another poster I did not find it necessary to shut off the music as it sounds quite beautiful and adds to the game's atmosphere. But suppose it's possible some may find any music distracting as this is a math game that requires calculating sums in one's head. Don't be put off by that though, the calculations are not at all difficult.

Supports multiple player profiles and saved games. Options for full screen or windowed mode, and custom cursors which don't look different enough to matter. If they wanted to add custom cursors a quill pen cursor would have been nice and seems a natural for this game, sadly it's not there. Option for 3D acceleration on/off but I didn't see any obvious 3D accelerating even while this option was switched on.

Game play works fine, you choose adjacent numbered tiles that equal the sum of the last tile in the sequence. Example: The last tile is an 8, and adjacent tiles are 4, 1, and 3. Choose, in order, the 3 then the 1 then the 4 and last the 8. A correct sequence is shown when the tiles turn green. At that point either click "Submit" or just double click the last number in the sequence (the 8) to submit. Three play modes, Adventure, Survival or Puzzle.

The only thing I didn't like about this game is the way some of the bonuses work. Bonuses are great and keep games interesting, but one type in this game sends a flying jewel that you have to click to get the bonus value. Different colored jewels have different values, but there's one pink jewel that flies far too fast and is difficult to catch. (Maybe that's the sole use of 3D acceleration?) Other colored jewels, blue and green ones, don't fly nearly as fast and are far easier to catch while flying. Other than that it's a great game. Personally prefer word games over math games, hated Yahtzee as a kid and still hate it. But others like them, and Numericon is one math game I actually enjoy so other word game aficionados may enjoy it as well. Thumbs up on this math game!

Irish1952, may I suggest playing Go as well to keep the brain occupied? It's a great strategy board game, it takes a while to learn but is both great fun and brain stimulating.
