About Tens!

Tens! is an engaging, number-based puzzle game that combines the grid layout of Sudoku with the tile-matching mechanics of block-dropping games. Developed by Kwalee Ltd, this title challenges players to place sets of numbered dice onto a 5x5 grid. The goal is simple yet deeply strategic: arrange the dice so that any complete row or column sums up to exactly ten.

Each session offers a satisfying rhythm of risk and reward. As the grid fills up, you must balance clearing immediate lines with setting up larger combos for a higher score. With multiple shapes of dice sets spawning, every placement requires careful planning. If you run out of moves because the board is full and no space remains for your upcoming pieces, the game ends, urging you to try again with a better layout strategy.

Controls

  • Mouse Click & Drag: Select a set of dice and place it onto the grid.
  • Tap & Drag (Mobile): Drag the dice sets directly onto the screen to position them on the board.
  • Spacebar or Right-Click: Rotate the incoming dice block before placing it.

Tips

  • Go for Multi-Line Combos: Try to set up situations where a single dice placement completes both a row and a column. Clearing multiple lines at once earns a much higher score multiplier and clears a large portion of the grid.
  • Plan Around the Previews: Keep an eye on the upcoming dice sets shown at the bottom of the screen. Planning your board layout for the next few turns prevents you from getting stuck with an unplaceable piece.
  • Keep High Numbers Together: Try to group lower numbers that easily add up to ten, and avoid placing high numbers in areas where they will block lines. Grouping high-value dice can make it easier to reach ten quickly with a single low-value die.
