Visual Memory: what to know before playing
Take a moment with Visual Memory before moving to another game. Select every square that was shown. Selecting an unshown square ends the session. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Use the opening round to become familiar with the layout. Use the example below to understand a decision.
An idea for your next attempt
Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Make the next step deliberately.
The goal to keep in mind
Select every square that was shown. Selecting an unshown square ends the session. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Take a moment to understand the current position.
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.
Using the playing area
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.
One way to understand the rules
If the four corner squares were shown, select those four corners in any order. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Consider the next action carefully.
Notice this detail
Unlike Sequence Memory, this game does not require the original order. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round.
