How to play Visual Memory
Try Visual Memory at your own pace and keep its objective in view. Select every square that was shown. Selecting an unshown square ends the session. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Read the objective before making your first input. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.
A careful first round
Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Keep the objective visible.
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. Try to explain the aim in your own words.
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. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. 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. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Notice the change in the playing area.
Watch out for this
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. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
