Frequently asked questions about the memory game
How many card pairs does each level have?
The game has 3 levels: easy with 3 pairs (6 cards), medium with 8 pairs (16 cards), and hard with 10 pairs (20 cards). The easy levels are designed for the youngest kids, while the hard ones challenge older kids and adults. Each level is available in 4 different themes.
What age can kids start playing the memory game?
From age 2 kids can already enjoy the easy level with 3 pairs. Visual memory develops very early, and the format of face-down cards is intuitive: pick two, compare, remember. Between ages 4 and 5 they move to the medium level, and from age 6 onward they can handle the hard level.
What themes do the memory cards come in?
The cards come in 4 themes: animals (cats, dogs, lions, etc.), fruits (apples, pears, watermelons), vehicles (cars, planes, motorcycles), and space (rockets, planets, astronauts). The child picks the theme that interests them most and that increases motivation and attention during the game.
