  • TypeANumber. Shows leaderboards and achievements. In this exciting game, you type the score you think you deserve. But wait! There is a twist. If you are playing in easy mode, you get the score you requested. However, if you are playing in hard mode, you only get half! (tough game, we know).

Note: the samples that have corresponding counterparts for iOS and web (particularly, CollectAllTheStars and TypeANumber) are compatible across the platforms. This means that you can play some levels on CollectAllTheStars on your Android device, and then pick up your iOS device and continue where you left off! For TypeANumber, you will see your achievements and leaderboards on all platforms, and progress obtained on one will be reflected on the others.
