The essentials of playing Memory Pairs

Try Memory Pairs at your own pace and keep its objective in view. Match all eight pairs. Your result is the number of two-card turns used. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Compare the starting position with the example in the Guide. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.

A small practice goal

Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Make the next step deliberately.

Aim for this result

Match all eight pairs. Your result is the number of two-card turns used. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Keep the controls in easy reach.

How to proceed

  1. Turn over any face-down card.
  2. Choose a second card. Equal symbols stay visible.
  3. Unequal cards turn back after a short pause.
  4. Continue until every pair is visible.

Using the playing area

Use the on-screen controls with a mouse or touch. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Use one clear input at a time.

Follow the example

Turn over one card, remember its position, then choose a second. A matching pair stays found; a mismatch is hidden again. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Look for the relevant detail.

Pay attention to this rule

You cannot turn a third card while a mismatched pair is still being shown. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
