Memory Match

Every tile starts face up. Memorise as much of the board as you can before the preview runs out — or press Start now to turn the board over early and bank the time you gave back as bonus points. After that, turn over two tiles at a time. A matching pair stays up; anything else turns back over after a moment.

Each pair is worth a base amount that grows with your streak, so several matches in a row are worth far more than the same matches scattered between wrong guesses. Wrong guesses, hints and peeks are deducted, and clearing the board under par time adds a bonus. A bigger board multiplies the whole subtotal.

In a two-player game you take turns on the same device. Find a pair and you keep the turn; miss and it passes over. Hints and peeks are switched off entirely, because an advantage one player can buy is not a fair board.
