Mixmath

Domino and Tile Games

Mixmath, stylized mi times ma plus h, is a Canadian board game developed by Wrebbit and published in 1987 for two to four players, playable in about an hour. It resembles a variant of Scrabble: tiles are placed on a crossword-style fourteen-by-fourteen grid, with premium squares that double or triple a tile value and a fifty-point bonus for playing all seven rack tiles in a single turn. Unlike Scrabble, Mixmath uses numbered tiles rather than letters, so that intersecting rows and columns must resolve to short, mathematically correct arithmetic equations instead of words. Wrebbit was later acquired by Hasbro, and Mixmath appears to have gone out of print following that acquisition.
