Numbako

Numbako is a competitive falling-block puzzle game based on Blackjack. You match numbered blocks to complete horizontal lines and send garbage blocks to your opponent’s field, using the STOCK and JACK systems to build attacks.

Line totals

When you fill a horizontal line, its total determines what happens:

• JACK: A total of 21 clears the line as a JACKPOT and sends a massive amount of blocks to your opponent.
• BUST: A total over 21 clears the line and any STOCK lines.
• STOCK: A total below 21 puts the line in a ready-to-clear state that boosts attack power.
• Not STOCK: A total below 10 leaves the line uncleared until you clear it with a JACK. Deal with these lines before your field runs out of space.

Music and multiplayer

The Music Room lets you listen to the game’s tracks. The Steam version also includes an original soundtrack with rearranged versions of the music, saved in the “NumbakoSoundTrack” folder in the installation directory.

You can play two-player PvP with friends through Steam Remote Play Together. The game was created with the pico-8 game engine and is also available for free on the lexaloffle forum.
