A Memory Matching Game
This app is a memory matching game and is played by the end-facing user. The game is Pokémon themed and targeted for young children and adults, both male and female into their 30s and up. The app recognizes the device it is playing on and adjusts for both iPhone and iPad. The app connects to Apple’s Game Center using GameKit. The game uses Game Center’s leaderboard to track time and points scored. Authenticating the user asks proper permission to connect. It also creates notifications with GKGameCenterViewController and push notifications with attachments. An options menu allows the user to mute the background music. Here the user can pull up the leader board, choose the level of difficulty, and pick an image pack based on the generations of Pokémon.
