I need a 12-step program for this game. I play it for a few days, for way longer than I should, and then I delete it and say I won’t do that again. And then a day or two later, I repeat. Again, and again, and again. It is a very fun and pretty mindless game that I find both entertaining and satisfying, like a good dessert. As an indication of how much I have played it, I can tell you that I almost always get to 20 at least ten times, frequently more than 15 times, and my record is 21 times. I love it, AND I wish there were a way to never be able to load it again. I would get so much more done in my life if that were possible!

Do you have long, boring calls that you need to be “present” for but kill more brain cells than the typical call? This game can be for you! You can get carried into another zone while you zone out the ‘clever’ chatter and midweek banter on the other end of the line. The game has multiple versions of the number matching concept, but the OG is hands down my favorite. Seeing those blocks stack up and then fall into each other is so incredibly satisfying as I ignore the voices around me.

The days are a blur. The last vestiges of my sanity have flown. There are only numbers now. But really- I have been very obsessed with Baldur’s Gate 3 and even then I have not played nearly as many sessions of that game as I have with this. Twenty has completely taken over my life. I hold conversations while playing it. I have brainstorming sessions while playing it. I’m on work calls while playing it. Really, I’m writing this review as a confessional. Play it at your own risk, truly. It’s too too good.
