Count up to me and we’re all unique
Go beyond, and then you’ll see
How we have to combine and repeat
To form all the numbers - one to infinity!
I’m usually the sign that dawn is nigh
After me, the sun climbs up in the sky
I’m more than halfway down the line
But in a dozen I’m half, and that should tell you just fine!
I may be little, I may be small
But yet I’m able to stand tall
Because all that’s even is based upon me
Take me out of the system and only odd you’ll see!
I’ll tell you who I am loud and clear
I’m part of a sweet teenage year
If you still have doubts here’s another clue
Seven times me is forty-two!
I’m one of the numbers on a die
To find me out, hard you must try
I can’t be formed with just one hand
Three of me and I’m the devil’s brand!
Perhaps this is the easiest clue
If you know a little, you’ll know me too
I’m not a wonder of any kind
But think wonders of the world and I result in mind!
I am born when the sun meets the rain
I stretch across the sky like a curving train
I end at a pot of gold, or so they say
The number of my colors is the answer today!
I rhyme perfectly with another
It’s four more than me, so please be clever
One that’s like two sticks placed side by side
Do the math correctly and then decide!
Multiply any number by me
Add the digits that result and you’ll see
It’s not magic though it seems to be
How I turn up as the answer and solve the mystery
I feature in this game many a time
So much so that it’s hard to find a rhyme
I’m almost a right angle, upside down
That should tell you who I am, so please don’t frown!
NB - I wrote this game for an event that I recently hosted. Whoever could figure out the number from the clues and dial it first was the winner.
