Nubby's Number Factory is a captivating blend of puzzle strategy and roguelike mechanics. You play as Nubby, managing a factory board where every tile can be upgraded with unique buffs and modifiers. The goal is simple: create a synergy of numbers that multiplies exponentially to reach the target score. With every run, you'll discover new combinations of 'Tonys' (power-ups) and areas that change how you play. Originally a hit on PC, this mobile version brings the same addictive gameplay with optimized touch controls, making it the perfect 'just one more run' experience for your phone.

Nubby's Number Factory is the definition of a hidden gem. If you enjoyed games like Balatro or Luck be a Landlord, you will absolutely fall in love with this. It takes the abstract concept of 'number crunching' and turns it into an incredibly satisfying, visually charming puzzle game. There is nothing quite like the dopamine hit of watching your score jump from the hundreds into the millions because you finally landed that perfect synergy.
The mobile port is excellent. It plays beautifully in short bursts, though you might find your 'quick game' turning into an hour-long session. The art style is quirky and full of personality, making the factory feel like a living place rather than a sterile puzzle grid. While I’d love to see a portrait mode for one-handed play, the current landscape layout works perfectly for managing your board. It’s a deep, rewarding, and highly addictive game that I can't stop recommending.
Features
Addictive roguelike-style progression
Dozens of unique buffs and 'Tonys' to discover
Multiple factory areas with unique mechanics
Optimized touch controls for mobile play
Unlockable skins and cosmetic rewards
Tips & Walkthrough
Place your starting numbers on the grid. Each turn, you can select a new buff or a number upgrade. Aim to place matching buffs near each other to trigger powerful chain reactions that boost your total score.
Gameplays
As you progress, look for 'Synergy Buffs' that multiply scores based on tile placement. Saving your stars to unlock a 'Rare Tony' can turn a failing run into a record-breaking performance. Learn which combinations work best for each factory area.

Amazing game ! On mobile more addicting
Fri Apr 17 2026 sweeeeeeeeeereI love this game on pc , it has such unique style and charm and makes you just want to do another run figure out a synergy and hit the most insane numbers possible . On mobile it’s all that and now so much easy to knock out a game on lunch . The devs have been awesome about updating the game and I hope they add a portrait mode and a possible way to change where u aim from . Even with that it’s 10/10 on mobile .
Bug with earning stars
Fri Apr 17 2026 SuperSimulacrumIt is not giving me stars. Sometimes I’ll win two or three or sometimes I’ll win five but it never combines those numbers together. I go to buy a skin thinking I have 10, but it only gives me the number that I won in the last round so I never have enough to unlock skins. Absolutely fantastic game other than that. Thank you.

Wed Apr 15 2026 ghfhcbfhthis game is absolutely amazing. I hope to constantly see you updates from the developer. He didn’t absolute amazing job. I can’t wait to see if there’s more Tony’s or more new buffs that you can get new areas all sorts of things. This is absolutely a beautiful game please keep up the great day of work and I would definitely have paid more money for this game.
NUBBY ON THE GO!!
Wed Apr 15 2026 Michael SqueltchGreat game with great people behind it. Fun for casual gamers who’ve never touched a rougelike in their life, and hardcore gamers who have played games their entire life. Super easy to pick up and play for a short period of time, or to play for hours if you wanna grind out everything. It’s nubby’s number factory on the go! What else could you want?
Portrait mode
Wed Apr 15 2026 Jdb123I love this game have almost 100 hours on pc. I’ve been excited for the app since it was announced. I’m giving this 4 stars out of 5 because there is a (in my opinion) glaring issue. There’s no option for portrait mode. That’s a huge missed opportunity. Developer if you’re ready this please implement portrait mode. Change the board layout if you have to.
One of the best games I have ever played.
Wed Apr 15 2026 pringleplucker9You know I had to get it on mobile too! This game is too fun NOT to be played at all times, home or not. One small issue; sound effects will sometimes break. Does this hurt the five stars? Hell no! Five stars all the way.
You’ll get addicted
Wed Apr 15 2026 ArnyDevThis game is awesome. I’ve already played it for almost 100 hours on PC so you can imagine I’ll spend a lot more time on it now that I can take it anywhere. Well worth the price and very fun :)
