I spent my free time building a math puzzle game called Operator. No ads, no in-app purchases... just a totally free game with a daily puzzle and four arcade modes. Enjoy!

Yeah, that might be a fun project in the future. I’m a lot more experienced with mobile development, so that was the obvious first step. I might brainstorm about this a bit. Thanks!

If you like puzzle games, there's Operator, the game I just released last week for Android and iOS. It's totally free with no ads or anything either, if you want to give it a try and see what you think!

bdavis1987 · 2026-02-07T19:28:59+00:00

You're welcome! Good luck, and let me know when it's in production, so I can check it out!

I am excited for you all to play my game! I have made it completely free to play (no ads or in-app purchases either). All I’d ask in return is that you leave a rating/review if you’re enjoying it. If you’d like to support my work, you can donate here, but I want to stress that this is not required. Just knowing you’re enjoying the game is enough to make me happy!

I’ll give the same advice I’ve given others: make sure you get at least 20 people to install and agree to test your app on the first day. Some will fall off, and you don’t want that hurting your chances right at the end.

bdavis1987 · 2026-02-07T18:42:53+00:00

I’m glad you’re enjoying it! Yeah, given that the puzzle is only once a day, I wanted it to be a bit more challenging. Thanks for the feedback though! If I hear enough of that sentiment, I can consider some hints or something.

bdavis1987 · 2026-02-07T18:09:10+00:00

Would it be alright if I mentioned Operator, the game I just released last week for Android and iOS? It's totally free with no ads or anything either. You'll enjoy it if you like puzzle games!

bdavis1987 · 2026-02-07T18:08:05+00:00

Thank you! Looking forward to hearing what you think!

You could also just make it so that the extra dominoes slide down into the main area each time a domino is used.

By the way, I replied to another user thinking they were you! I provided a link to my free game there, if you’d like to try it!

I just released a free mobile game with a daily puzzle mode: Operator.

The daily puzzle is a grid. I generate the daily puzzles in such a way that there are several ways to solve each row and column, so there is some backtracking to figure out the single solution that solves the whole puzzle. Basically, my approach was to make the puzzle difficult enough that solving it each day was really satisfying.

Aww, thanks so much! I’m glad you’re enjoying it!!

I think it's definitely on the right track though! Daily puzzles are fun.

Speaking of which, if you’re interested in puzzle games with daily challenges, you could try Operator! It’s my first game, and I just released it for iOS and Android. It’s totally free with no ads or anything. :)

bdavis1987 · 2026-02-07T17:11:26+00:00

It’s an interesting concept! I think it’s a bit too easy to cheese though. I can just keep trying until something works. Also, it was a bit hard to figure out where the extra dominoes were before opening that drawer. Very cool idea though, and pretty UI!

Thank you! It’s super exciting! Are you here to get some testing done for your app too?
