Higher or Lower
A simple higher-or-lower number game: guess whether the next number from 1 to 100 will be higher or lower, and build the longest streak you can.
Higher or Lower
A number from 1 to 100 is shown. Will the next one be higher or lower? Keep guessing to build your streak - one wrong guess ends the run.
Run over
A number from 1 to 100 is on the screen - will the next one be higher or lower? It sounds like pure luck, but the number you are looking at tells you which way to lean: near 100, lower is the safe call; near 1, higher is. See how long a streak you can build.
How to Play
- Press Start. A number from 1 to 100 appears.
- Guess whether the next one will be Higher or Lower.
- A correct guess extends your streak; a wrong one ends the run. Your best streak is saved on your device.
The Bit of Strategy
Each new number is random and even, so the smart move is simply to compare against the middle: if the current number is above 50, “lower” is more likely; below 50, “higher” is. It will not win every time, but over a run it tilts the odds your way.
