Game objective
Reveal and match all eight pairs on the 4×4 board within 60 seconds.
Controls
- Tap or click two cards: Reveal a pair and test whether their faces match
How scoring works
Pairs matched. Two revealed cards have the same face All pairs are matched or the timer reaches zero
Core mechanics
- Only two cards can be evaluated at a time; a mismatch turns both faces down after a short reveal.
- Matched pairs stay visible, reducing the unknown board and freeing attention for remaining positions.
- Card positions persist for the round, so remembered coordinates convert later reveals into immediate matches.
Common failure causes
- Revealing cards in a random order makes their positions harder to encode and recall.
- Selecting a new unknown card when a known pair is available wastes both a move and countdown time.
- Remembering only the symbol but not its row and column leads to repeated searches for the partner.
How to recover a difficult position
When locations start to blur, resume a fixed row-by-row scan and verbally pair each face with a grid coordinate. Clear any fully known pair immediately; every removed pair simplifies the board and makes the remaining coordinate memories easier to maintain.
