About this game

Can you bring it to ZERO?

Core Zero is a minimalist math puzzle game that's easy to learn but
hard to put down. Slide numbered tiles across the board and apply
their operations to the Core — your goal is to make it hit exactly
ZERO, then chase your highest score.

HOW TO PLAY
- Swipe to slide all tiles across the 7x7 grid
- Each tile carries an operation: +, -, x or ÷
- Tiles hit the Core one by one, each applying in order
- The instant the Core reaches exactly 0, the level is cleared —
so line up your tiles to make ZERO come first!

MASTER THE MECHANICS
- MERGE: two identical tiles combine into one stronger tile —
and earn you extra moves!
- ANNIHILATION: tiles with the same number but opposite signs
destroy each other, and the negative value is subtracted
from the Core
- MULTIPLY with care: the x tile grows the Core fast — powerful,
but it can tip you into overload
- DIVIDE cleanly: the ÷ tile only works when the Core divides
evenly — otherwise it bounces off, so set it up right
- OVERLOAD: don't let the Core grow too large, or it's game over!

FEATURES
- Clean, minimalist design — no clutter, just puzzle
- Chase your high score across endless, escalating levels
- Progressive difficulty: multiplication and division join
the fun as you climb
- Limited moves per level — plan every swipe
- Smart tile spawning that keeps every level fair
- Quick interactive tutorial that teaches you the ropes
- Completely FREE — no ads, no in-app purchases
- Works fully offline
- No registration, no data collection

Every swipe counts. Plan your moves, chain your merges, and chase
that perfect ZERO.
