Store Page Description
Every train carriage in Sydney is given a 4 digit long carriage number. Back in the day, me and some mates of mine had a game where you'd have to take those numbers and make 10 out of em; using whatever math function you could think of. 5290? (9x0)+(5x2) = 10, Easy.
As it turns out, we were not that creative. ~400million trips are made on the Sydney rail network a year, and just about every commuter seems to have independently had the same idea (sometimes with some slight rule variations). At this point, its become a bit of a folk game within New South Wales.
And so I decided to bring the game to the Playdate - while trying to keep the vibes tied to the city it came from.
Features
