GameSpot reports: This collection of math conundrums tasks you with reaching a designated number by using six numbers that you&#8217;re free to multiply, divide, subtract, or add up to reach the final result, so long as your process doesn&#8217;t create any fractions or negative numbers.<\/p>\n<p>Currently in beta and only available for this week, there&#8217;ll be five of these math puzzles to solve every day. These aren&#8217;t one-and-done puzzles like Wordle, and depending on the path you choose to solve one of these math mysteries, you&#8217;ll be awarded 1-3 star ratings. If Digits proves to be popular with its readers, the New York Times will then start work on the further development of the game.<\/p>\n<p \/>\n<div class=\"share_submission\" style=\"position:relative\">\n<a class=\"slashpop\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/home?status=NYT+Debuts+Digits%2C+the+Math+Version+of+Wordle%3A+https%3A%2F%2Fscience.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F23%2F04%2F11%2F2230200%2F%3Futm_source%3Dtwitter%26utm_medium%3Dtwitter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/twitter_icon_large-428.png\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"slashpop\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fscience.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F23%2F04%2F11%2F2230200%2Fnyt-debuts-digits-the-math-version-of-wordle%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/facebook_icon_large-214.png\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/science.slashdot.org\/story\/23\/04\/11\/2230200\/nyt-debuts-digits-the-math-version-of-wordle?utm_source=rss1.0moreanon&amp;utm_medium=feed\">Read more of this story<\/a> at Slashdot.<\/p>\n<p>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Slashdot &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/science.slashdot.org\/story\/23\/04\/11\/2230200\/nyt-debuts-digits-the-math-version-of-wordle?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NYT Debuts Digits, the Math Version of Wordle<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The New York Times added a new daily puzzle game to its library in the form of Digits.
