Neat! Reminds me of 8 out of 10 cats does countdown. Only note is it’d be nice if the prior “yellow” square would be auto-injected if you click an operator when there’s no number on the left cell.
And maybe if it had more “big” numbers, the expert mode is still pretty easy.
I made the site a few years ago, but I've refined it and added some features over time. Hopefully it's worth another mention!
Fun game, reminds me of the numbers round of Countdown. I would love to be able to use keyboard shortcuts instead of having to click.

... "8 out of 10 cats" is a comedy troupe. Countdown is the name of the game, and in particular the Numbers Round: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Countdown_(game_show)#Numbers_...
Yep, the show is called “8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown”!
Fun little game. How does the engine know that a solution is optimal?
