How to play Visual Memory
Choose a round of Visual Memory and settle into its rules. Select every square that was shown. Selecting an unshown square ends the session. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Compare the starting position with the example in the Guide. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.
Keep the aim in sight
Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules. 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. 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.
Controls
Use the on-screen controls with a mouse or touch. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
A useful example
If the four corner squares were shown, select those four corners in any order. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Keep the game’s format in mind.
Watch out for this
Unlike Sequence Memory, this game does not require the original order. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
