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. Try to explain the aim in your own words.
The order of play
- 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.
Keyboard and screen controls
Use the on-screen controls with a mouse or touch. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Look at the feedback after the action.
An example to follow
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. Keep the game’s format in mind.
Check this before moving on
Unlike Sequence Memory, this game does not require the original order. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
