No waiting 24h. Play as many games as you want every day! Guess the OPERATION in 6 tries. After each guess, the color of the tiles will change to show how close your guess was to the solution. Rules: · There are 8 “characters” · A “character” is one of "0123456789+-*/=" · Every OPERATION must be a calculation that is mathematically correct. So it must have one “=” · The number on the right of the “=” is just a number (not another calculation) · Standard order of operations applies, so calculate * and / before + and - · Order matters in MATHLE. If the answer we’re looking for is 12+35=47, then 35+12=47 isn’t correct. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
