how to play
This is a game to play in pairs or small groups. In the game of Memory, players try to collect pairs of matching cards.
- All of the cards are placed face down on a flat surface.
- A player turns up two cards; if they match, they are collected by the player and he or she goes again.
- If they don't match, the cards are flipped over and it's the next player's turn.
- The player with the most matching sets of cards at the end of the game wins.
