CountleDaily Countdown Numbers Game: Reach the Target Number
Countle gives everyone the same six numbers and a three-digit target, just like the numbers round on the British TV show Countdown. You build the target step by step, combining two numbers at a time with addition, subtraction, multiplication or division, and each result becomes a new number to use. It's free to play in your browser, with one numbers round a day and no account needed. There is no unlimited mode: once today's puzzle is done, the next one comes tomorrow.

How to play Countle
- Look at the target and the six numbers you are given.
- Pick a number, an operator and a second number to combine them into a new value.
- Keep combining results with the remaining numbers; negative numbers and fractions are not allowed.
- Reach the exact target to finish. You do not have to use every number.
Tips
- Big numbers such as 25, 50, 75 or 100 are usually best multiplied by a small number to get close fast.
- Work out how far the target is from a round multiple, then build that small difference from the leftovers.
- Keep one small number in reserve for a final adjustment.
