A small practice goal

Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Use the example to check your reasoning.

The objective of a round

Match all eight pairs. Your result is the number of two-card turns used. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Try to explain the aim in your own words.

The steps to play

  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.

Making selections and moves

Use the on-screen controls with a mouse or touch. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.

One way to understand the rules

Turn over one card, remember its position, then choose a second. A matching pair stays found; a mismatch is hidden again. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Keep the game’s format in mind.

A mistake to avoid

You cannot turn a third card while a mismatched pair is still being shown. Compare the situation with the worked example. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
