How to play Visual Memory
Visual Memory gives you a focused activity to play in your browser. Select every square that was shown. Selecting an unshown square ends the session. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Treat the first round as a chance to learn the controls. Use the example below to understand a decision.
Try a deliberate move
After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Use the example to check your reasoning.
Your goal
Select every square that was shown. Selecting an unshown square ends the session. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
Step by step
- Start a round and watch the highlighted cells.
- Wait until the board hides the pattern.
- Select the positions you remember; order does not matter.
- Complete the pattern to advance.
Controls
Use the on-screen controls with a mouse or touch. Use the control method described here for this activity. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
A useful example
If the four corner squares were shown, select those four corners in any order. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Check the stated objective.
Watch out for this
Unlike Sequence Memory, this game does not require the original order. Compare the situation with the worked example. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
