I have just discovered that there are over 700,000 games available on Android. There doesn't appear to be anyone who has created a list of those used by pedantic mathematicians on London buses.

It was a good clue. Not sufficiently easy for you, though.

It is going to be such an anti-climax when we discover that none of us have ever heard of this game.

What I really need to know is should I pay £18.99 for Krohn 2003?
I'm sorry but I can't think of an answer.

Is it a game called 3.33? I think we had that on the ZX Spectrum. Didn't know they'd ported it to Android.

I typed it into google and got a large number of games that seemed to have roughly this order of words to describe them.
Besides I was listening to Julio.

After one glass, the GB70 (popped and poured) is every bit as good as I thought it would be.

OK, the quiet conspiracy of let’s-pretend-not-to-know is wearing thin. It is
7x7, which I highly recommend. Open question: first to ask is question master.
And if nobody does, I will tomorrow.

This very evening a bottle of Port was opened in the Wiseman household, and finished. What?
And it has been mentioned on this forum within the last month or so, in a comment directed at a regular player of this game.

Foul! You can't give the answer away just because we didn't get it! No no. No more questions for Julian. Until he guesses correctly.
I have a really, really boring question - even more boring than Julian's - and frighteningly, also numerical in bent. But I think a boring question is not what we need now.
