The classic pairs game, ready on any phone or computer. Cards lie face down; turn two over and, if they match, they stay up. Remember where each picture was to find all the pairs in as few moves as possible. Choose a theme (animals, fruit, vehicles, space or letters), a size from 6 to 15 pairs, and play alone to beat your best score or with a friend taking turns.
loading toolHow to play the memory game
- Choose a theme, a size and 1 or 2 players.
- Tap a card, then another, to turn them over.
- Matching pairs stay face up; others turn back.
- Find every pair, then press New game to play again.
Good to know
- Start with 6 pairs for young children; 12 or 15 pairs is a real challenge for adults.
- Say the picture names aloud as you turn them: it helps you remember.
Questions
How does the 2-player game work?
Players take turns. Finding a pair scores a point and gives another go; a miss passes the turn. The player with more pairs at the end wins.
Is the card order really random?
Yes. Cards are shuffled with your browser’s secure random generator every game.
Where is my best score kept?
On this device only, for each theme and size.
Is it safe for children?
Yes. There is no chat, no sign-up and nothing to buy inside the activity. Nothing a child taps or types is sent anywhere. Like the rest of the site it shows a few ads around the page (never inside the activity), so younger children are best supervised.
Is my data private?
Yes. Everything happens inside your own browser: nothing you type or choose is uploaded to us or anyone else.
Is it free?
Completely free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no limit on how many times you use it. Light ads keep the site running.
