Dozenal
Dozenal is a daily number and logic puzzle where you link numbered tiles into chains that total 12; the gaps between tiles determine the arithmetic and the puzzle resets daily.
Play DozenalA fresh puzzle is waiting for you.
Dozenal is a grid-based number puzzle played in your browser that asks you to combine numbered tiles so each chain sums to 12. The spatial gaps between tiles dictate which arithmetic operation applies when you connect them. Every tile on the board must belong to a valid chain.
You can play a practice puzzle from the site and access a daily archive of past puzzles. No account is required to play in the browser, and basic settings are available on the page. The game emphasizes logic and arithmetic reasoning rather than wordplay.
How to play Dozenal
- Open the Dozenal page in your browser and choose either the practice puzzle or the daily puzzle.
- Scan the grid and identify tiles that can be connected into chains whose result is 12.
- Follow the board rules where gaps between tiles determine which arithmetic operation connects them.
- Connect tiles so that every tile belongs to a valid chain that evaluates to 12.
- Submit your solution when all tiles are placed in chains that satisfy the arithmetic rules.
Tips for Dozenal
- Start by locating tiles with numbers close to 12 and see which nearby tiles could complete a chain.
- Use the pattern of gaps to determine allowed operations before committing to a connection.
- Reserve isolated or awkward tiles for last and work outward from clusters that clearly sum to 12.
- Use the practice puzzle to learn how gaps change the arithmetic without affecting your daily record.
