In brief
"Scrabble with math" is how this game is generally described, and the description is apt. The board is much like a Scrabble board, including spaces equivalent to "double-word score" and "triple-letter score". The difference is that, instead of placing words formed of letters, players of Equate place equations formed of numbers and symbols on the board.
