How do I play?
Tap an occupied segment, then an empty snap slot to move one matchstick. Rotation is allowed; each relocation counts as one move. Use every matchstick and stay within the move limit. Operators and the equals sign are fixed. Leading zeros are allowed. For geometry, count complete squares of every size; every matchstick must belong to at least one complete square. For algebra, make the equation true for the given value of x. Check your arrangement when ready.

Strategy tips
Count squares of every size, including larger ones that share edges with small squares. A move relocates a stick; plan which empty slot it will fill without adding or discarding sticks.
