About the memory game generator
The classic concentration game: all cards start face down; turn over two at a time and try to find the matching pairs. Type any words (spelling words, names, vocabulary) and each becomes a pair of identical cards. The game counts your moves so you can try to beat your score.
Play on a phone, tablet or classroom screen, or print the cards on paper.

Frequently asked questions
What’s the difference from the matching game generator?
Here both cards in a pair are the same. The matching game generator pairs different cards, like a word and its meaning.
How do memory and matching modes differ?
In memory mode cards start face down and you remember where they are; in matching mode they’re face up, so it’s purely about knowing the answer.
Can I print the cards?
Yes. “Download cards PDF” prints every pair in the memory game generator as cut-out cards, 20 per A4 page.
Does it work on phones and classroom screens?
Yes. Cards resize to the screen and are big enough to tap; on a projector, students can take turns to pick.
Is anything saved or shared?
No. The game runs in your browser and nothing you type or play is stored or sent anywhere.
