I know it's a silly program, but the Nibbles program that comes with
QBasic/DOS 5 fits the bill perfectly.

Also, as you have the source code, you can customise the game when it
gets too easy. I have configured mine so that the numbers run around the
screen, and there are optional random speed changes. It makes it much
more challenging.

I have also thought of making it a 3 player game, where one person
controls the number! Now that would be silly!

Just a thought!

Andy.
