About the Game

Equate! is a one-player mathematical card game - you have to make equations by dragging arithmetic operators between the cards you're dealt. Try to make the longest equation you can to get the most points. If you can't make an equation, you'll have to deal more cards, whose values will be added to the current ones. Once you've created an equation, you can remove it and the spaces will be filled with cards from the deck. There are options for how many cards will be dealt at a time, and you can play a timed or untimed game.

Main Features:

  • There are three options for the number of cards visible at a time (fewer cards makes the game harder) and you can slso choose to play a timed game or an untimed one. Separate high score lists are kept for each combination of settings.
  • If, like I do, you have a compulsion to find equations in any string of numbers, here's a way to satisfy those cravings!
  • This game could help children to learn arithmetic, and the incentive to create long equations encourages more creativity in forming eqations..
