Memory Match

About this game

Memory Match is a calm, colourful take on the classic concentration game. Sixteen face-down cards hide eight shape pairs, and you flip two at a time to hunt them down. There is no fail state, so it works equally well as a warm-up for younger players or a focus exercise between tasks. Fewer moves and a faster time are the only scoreboards that matter.

How to play

1. 1Tap a card to flip it, then tap a second card.
2. 2A matching pair stays open, a mismatch flips back.
3. 3Clear all 8 pairs in as few moves as possible.

Tips and strategy

• Flip the corners and edges first. A card on the border has fewer neighbours, so there is less to confuse it with when you come back to it.
• When a card you already know turns up, take the pair immediately. Carrying a known card in your head through a mismatch is how the other half gets lost.
• Moves are the score, so slow down at the start. A pair found on the first pass through the board is worth far more than two pairs found by trial and error.
• Group the shapes by colour as well as by form. Sixteen cards is few enough that colour alone will often put you within one flip of the right card.

Sixteen cards are laid out face down, which makes eight pairs to find. Fewer moves and a faster time are the only two scores the game keeps.

Is Memory Match suitable for children?
