Super interesting idea, I love it! I scored most of my points thanks to the "x0" blocks though, I wish they didn't appear so often.
Surprisingly intuitive and fun to play, in my opinion. I don't think there is much incentive to using different colors? I tried to stick with red for everything and it seemed to work out better for me. Disallowing the player to change the color would make it feel much more puzzle-y.
I played for a solid half an hour. Very good game. I'd play it on the phone all the time.
Excellent game! Only criticism I can think of is that the next block spawns slightly out of screen which would be better if it's immediately visible what kind of block it is.
Fun game, pretty satisfying trying to stack up the blocks for the best score. A little disappointed that 99 is the limit and not 100, but I guess you have to draw the line somewhere. Choosing the colors of the blocks makes it a little trivial, though I can see how this could be expanded with larger block sets, or even blocks with multiple colors that affect both.
Took me some time to figure out how I can let the blocks disappear and I must admit I read it up but beside that quite fun idea. Randomness regarding color and shape may get this game more challenging when one has figured out the basics.

Yeah, the goal is not most intuitive one :) Adding more shapes would definitely make the gameplay more interesting.
Nice game. Well executed.
Regarding the gameplay:
single blocks fit any where, so not a difficult challenge to stack. and the color cheat.
Thanks for playing. I was planning to add dropping block size based on the number, but did not have time to implement.
I struggled to understand what triggers blocks combining, I would drop blocks of the same color onto or next to other blocks, and they wouldn't combine when I thought they should. I think it would help to have a tutorial level.
Heh! Admittedly the gameplay is not the most intuitive :) The logic is that the dropping block applies the operation individually to all connected same colored blocks. If the result can be divided by 10 the blocks break.
Love it! Great visual presentation, music, feedback. Changing the color seems a bit strong, spamming a single/dual color seems to be the way to go until you get the x0. A bit disappointed when I tried to match a big chunk of +91 with +9 and it resulted into 99. I enjoyed it very much!
You’re right :D Feels kind of cheating. Maybe I’ll try removing the ability to change color.
it's great. my favorite so far. but i'm color blind so the green and dark green(?) blocks look too similar to me to be able to play it properly.
You’re right. Would be nice to be able to swap colors.
