Memory - Freemium is a memory game for the whole family. You might know the game as pairs or concentration, and you almost certainly played it as a kid. Players are presented with a series of mystery cards. To play, you may turn over only two cards at a time. As you turn pairs of cards over, remember what you have seen, until you have uncovered two of the same image. When you see a familiar image, recall where it’s match was, select the match, and the cards are “solved.” The faster you match all the cards, the higher your score will be.

• Classic game of memory
• Concentration game
• Turn over two cards at once
• Find matching cards
