• Each Matharon card has blank spaces on the left and the right side of the equation.
• You are allowed to keep only 1 token on each blank space on the left side of the equation, but upto 2 number tokens (to form 2 digit number) on the right of the equation.
• If the blank space is coloured, the player can only use a token that matches the color of the space.If the blank space is white then you can use any color tokon

4. After solving the card the player:

• Moves the number of steps shown on the card
• Discards and replaces the solved card with the top card from the pile
• Discards the used number tokens and replaces it with new number tokens by randomly drawing them from the pouch (All players should have 6 number tokens at any given point in the game)

5. Then the next player takes their turn to solve one of the 4 open cards.
6. The game finishes when any one of the player lands on/crosses the finish line.
