Your guide to Visual Memory

Start Visual Memory by looking at the playing area and its controls. Select every square that was shown. Selecting an unshown square ends the session. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Check the rule that explains your first action. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.

Take a closer look while playing

When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round. Use the example to check your reasoning.

Your objective

Select every square that was shown. Selecting an unshown square ends the session. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.

How a round unfolds

  1. Start a round and watch the highlighted cells.
  2. Wait until the board hides the pattern.
  3. Select the positions you remember; order does not matter.
  4. Complete the pattern to advance.

Getting comfortable with the controls

Use the on-screen controls with a mouse or touch. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Check any mode label before starting.

An example before you play

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. Look for the relevant detail.

Avoid this misunderstanding

Unlike Sequence Memory, this game does not require the original order. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
