Equate This!
Description
Equate This! is a game where players create expressions to form an equation using BEDMAS over 5 rounds using number cards and operator cards. The player with the most points at the end of the 5 rounds wins the game. (BEDMAS is outlined in the rules for those who have forgotten it)
The excitement in this game is trying to solve for a common answer, using the cards you have, and get a better equation than all the other players. "Better" is relative though, as you don't need to be a math whiz to win. For example, to solve for 8, you can have 4+4+5-5 or (3-1)²+(15-11). Make them as simple or as complex as you'd like, just make sure you don't get stuck when you need to place down your equation.
