You can play the game here --> Memory Game
This game is a browser-based card matching game that presents the player with cards arranged in a 4x4 grid. On one side of each card is a common design shared by all cards. On the other is a distinctive symbol shared by one pair of cards in the deck, thus there are 8 unique symbols shared by 8 pairs of cards in the deck.
The objective of the Memory Game is for the play to turn over pairs of matching cards across eight successive turns. In a turn if the player selects two cards whose symbols match those cards, along with those successfully matched in previous turns, will remain up. However, if the player chooses two cards with different symbols they will both be flipped back over.
The game ends when all eight pairs of matching cards have been revealed.
In addition to the basic game play several UI components have been implemented to provide the player with features to improve the overall experience.
-
Restart Button - This button give the player the means to reset the game board, timer, and star rating.
-
Star Rating - From 1 to 3 stars are displayed to provide the player with a visual indication of his or her performance. Three stars are displayed at the start of the first turn and will be decremented by one star when the player fails to match cards in a turn. A star will be added when a turn is "won", but at any point in time a minimum of 0 stars and a maximum of 3 stars will be displayed.
-
Timer - A timer displaying the number of minutes and seconds that have elapsed. The timer is stopped when the player wins the game.
-
Move Counter - Displays the number of turns the player has taken, starting with one at the first turn.
