Instructions for the memory game
Train your memory with this classic memory game! Choose a difficulty level – the higher the level, the more cards to match.
How to play:
Flip a card and try to find another with the same image.
If it's not a match, the cards will be flipped back.
Remember the images to more easily find pairs later.
When all pairs are found, you've won!
What counts as a miss?
A miss occurs when you flip a card that you have already seen earlier during the game round, but which doesn't make a matching pair with your first selected card. Thinking before you flip your second card can help you avoid misses.
Levels and number of misses
The game has 30 levels that get harder as you progress. Each level group (same number of cards) contains three variants:
Standard level (no limit on misses).
Challenging level (only a certain number of misses are allowed).
Perfect level (0 misses allowed – can you do it?).
Examples of miss limits:
12 cards: Max 1 miss (level 11)
24 cards: Max 4 misses (level 14)
36 cards: Max 8 misses (level 17)
54 cards: Max 14 misses (level 20)
If you reach the miss limit before finding all pairs, the game is over!
Memory game for children – good for the brain
Memory is an excellent game for developing children's memory skills and concentration:
Let children return to the game regularly until they comfortably master the simpler levels
Many children make sudden progress when they develop their own memory strategies
To consolidate these strategies, play on several different occasions - not just once
Perfect times to play are on weekends and holidays!
Try different levels and challenge yourself to get better each time. Good luck!
Knowledge Points and Medals
Calculation of knowledge points
Each completed game level in Memory gives 1 knowledge points. You can collect a maximum of 30 knowledge points by completing all 30 levels.
In the game Memory, you can earn a total of 90 medals. Medals are awarded based on how many times you have completed a level:
Bronze medal: after completing 2 rounds.
Silver medal: after completing 5 rounds.
Gold medal: after completing 10 rounds.
Knowledge points are only awarded for levels you have not completed before, meaning those that do not yet have checked green circles. Even after completing a level and earning both knowledge points and medals, you can continue practicing it. However, this will not grant any additional knowledge points or medals.

I love this game, but for the really hard ones like 54 cards, what is the point for no misses there's literally no one who won't miss! But I love this game, definitely reccommend :)

I feel like there should be more cards added for more of a challenge; for example 64 cards/32 pairs would be great.

Anonymous: Thanks for the feedback! I've added an option to turn off the green feedback. You can now choose between green visual feedback, sound only, both, or no feedback at all. You can change this setting at any time, even during a game!

After you make a match I do not like it notifying you lighting up in green. Its very distracting while continuing the game.

Helini: Thank you for the suggestion! I've now added the number of misses to the logs. You should see entries like "3 misses and 51 moves" instead of just "51 moves". The update is live now!

The "Logs" of played memory games currently provide lot of information, which is good.
Yet, it would be great to have a column with the number of misses for each memory game as well in the "Logs".
Thank you.

Andrea: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback! 😊 I’ve added more options for the card backs, including the solid blue version. You can now choose between blue logo, black logo, solid blue, or gradient blue – and the game will remember your choice for the whole session.

The new shading on the unturned tiles. It creates a glare. I liked the solid, darker blue tiles better.
