Add em Up

I have emailed the developer of this game over the past 2 years since the iPhone came out seeing if they were planning on porting this game over to the App Store. I have yet to hear back from my email I sent a couple weeks ago.

The first time though however they mentioned they had no interest as they were not sure if the platform would take off. Plus it's a Windows only game as I asked about creating an Apple OS version. Again, they seemed to have little interest. The only way I can play it is the free online version.

So, my question is are there any number solving puzzle games in the App Store like this? I have seen Make Num but it does dot have the same polished look or gameplay as this Add em Up game.

Might someone out there like to borrow the idea of this game play and style and create an actual version for the iPhone? It seems like it would be such an easy and great fit with the touch interface.

It's hard to tell exactly how that game operates from screenshots, but you may want to check out CryptArithm. There's even a free version I believe. I've found it to be a lot of fun.

Yeah, if you play the free online version you'll see just how the game works in motion. That CryptArithm kind of reminds me of Marple, which I own and enjoy, quite a mind puzzle type of game.

I believe MakeSum (name might be off) is like that. If you like puzzle math games I'd also recommend searching Sumcession (shameless plug.)
