Some takeaways from the game: 1. There are many combinations of numbers that make ten and this has been a delightful study in getting my brain to quickly engage in simple addition
2. It is possible to have a least favorite number and that number is 4, may it burn eternally
3. I wish there was a version of this game without the timer - like a sort of freeplay mode? I understand that the challenge comes from working within the time constraint, but it would be neat to play around with enough time to really map out my moves and see the "theoretical" score I could have gotten
4. What in the probably-black-magic are some of you doing to get such high scores?????!!!!?!?!? I'm over here struggling to break 200 and definitely never going past the 260s while we've got screen shots of some geniuses getting 700+ Am I...stupid? Is that it? Is there a technique that I'm not privy to? Please upload a little video of you playing, oh mighty number crunchers, that I may learn from your glory...
5. Great game, 10/10 would recommend, absolutely a gem
3. The deluxe version (linked above) has a mode called Plan10, which is exactly what you're looking for.
4. The bigger the selection area you make (even if it's unnecessary), the more score you get. My strategy is to make one huge hold in the grid so I can rack up a bunch of large scoring areas in one fell swoop, but luck is still definitely involved.

Pretty challenging I like the puzzle aspect :)
