number puzzle

Digit logic game

A number puzzle is a game or problem solved through numerical reasoning rather than words.

Sudoku, KenKen, and magic squares are classic examples, requiring players to arrange digits according to specific rules.

Crossword-style puzzles using numerical clues—where answers are numbers rather than words—also fall into this category.
