Number tiles are combined with operation, equality, and bracket tiles, and equations can intersect in ways that resemble a crossword puzzle. The game is designed for players practicing arithmetic and basic mathematical statements while also using planning and scoring decisions.
help S'math FAQ
What is the board game S'math?
S'math is a tile-based arithmetic game published by Milton Bradley in which players build valid mathematical equations on a shared crossword-style grid. It combines number tiles with operation, equals, and bracket tiles.
How do you play S'math?
Players draw tiles and take turns laying down or extending equations, with new equations intersecting existing ones the way words cross in Scrabble. Scoring rewards longer and more complex equations, encouraging players to use brackets and multi-step math.
What age group is S'math aimed at?
It is generally listed for roughly ages 6 and up, making it a common classroom and home tool for practicing arithmetic. The difficulty can scale with the players since simple addition equations work for beginners and more complex operations suit older kids.
Is S'math basically Scrabble for math?
Yes, it is frequently described that way, since it copies Scrabble's shared-grid, tile-laying structure but with equations instead of words. A similar later take on the idea is the game Equate, which also uses a crossword-style board for math.
