About MatchsticksPuzzle.com
MatchsticksPuzzle.com is a browser-based logic puzzle platform built around the classic "move the matchsticks" challenge. Players fix broken equations, reshape geometry, and rearrange Roman numerals across 525 hand-crafted puzzles — with a daily challenge, streak tracking, and a global leaderboard to keep them coming back.
Platform Mission
MatchsticksPuzzle.com exists to make brain training quick, rewarding, and a little bit competitive. Each puzzle takes minutes to solve but the collection scales to hundreds of hours of play.
