Proof!
is an
award-winning,
fast, fun, and addicting card game that the whole family can enjoy!
For 2 - 6 players, ages 9+, and taking only 15 minutes,
Proof!
will have you showing off both your math
skills and creative thinking as you race to find equations hidden among nine number cards.
Got the cards 2, 8, and 10? Concoct an equation like 10 - 2 = 8!
Working with 2, 5, 5, 10, and 20? Conjure up a beauty like 5 + 5 = 20 ÷ 2 = 10!
Allowing you to use almost any math symbols and all sorts of crazy equations, Proof! is unlike most math games:
engaging for both students in a classroom and adults at a party.
Proof! is also the inspiration behind our infamous online web game, the
Weekly Challenge Math Puzzles.
For the more puzzle-minded players out there, each week we post a new set of nine cards that
hides a challenging equation. See if you can find the proof!
Full game instructions can be found
here.
Proof! was created by
Evermade
in New York City. And if you like Proof!, you may also enjoy our other math game,
Adsumudi.
One player volunteers to be the dealer,
shuffles the deck, and then
places nine cards
face up as a 3-by-3 grid in the center of the table.
At the same time, all players (including the dealer) study the cards in the grid and try to
create an equation
using
at least three cards
and
as many math symbols
as needed.
For example, the cards 2, 4, 7, and 1 above could be arranged to make 2 + 4 = 7 - 1.
When a player finds an equation, she
shouts the result,
such as “Six!”, which immediately locks out all other players and gives her a
chance to prove that the math works. If the proof checks out, she
takes the three or more cards
that were involved and keeps them in front of her.
Every time an equation is found, the dealer
replaces the cards
that were taken with new ones so that there are always nine cards face up in the grid.
Players continue finding equations until all the cards in the deck are used up and no more equations can be found.
Once all the cards in the deck are gone and no more equations can be made, the game is over and players count up their points.
Each card is worth 1 point
and the player with the
most points wins!

Proof! has won numerous awards!
Most notably, Proof! won the
2019 Teacher's Choice Awards,
with its teacher evaluators raving that Proof! is "an awesome, fun game for students to engage in while learning math"
and that they "would definitely recommend this game" for use in the classroom and at home.
It also won a
Parent's Choice Silver Award
and the
Creative Child's Game of the Year Award
in 2020.
Proof! also participated in the 2018
Mensa Mind Games
competition, and many of its brainy members
gave it top marks saying, "LOVE this game!", "Fast moving and different!", and "A real thinking person's game!".

Surprisingly (or perhaps not!) this is a common question among teachers and parents looking
to help their aspiring mathemagicians learn multiplication and math in general. The
Proof! tabletop math game
is definitely a fun and effective tool for getting in a ton of practice with addition, subtraction,
multiplication, and division, as well as for sharpening those mental math skills.
But our free, online
Weekly Challenge Math Puzzles
are also a great way to get that practice in! If you're looking to work on specific
math skills, such as multiplication, we've even hand-selected specific types of our math puzzles
so you can focus on the type of math you enjoy (or the type of math you need to improve!). Check out
