Take a quiet matching break with twelve face-down cards. Every symbol has one partner. There is no timer or penalty for trying again.

Find six matching pairs

Turn over two cards. Match their symbols to keep them face up.

Seven fixed layouts repeat weekly. Today's pick changes at 00:00 UTC. Changing layouts starts a fresh board.

The interactive board needs JavaScript. You can still read the guide and try the linked challenge below.

Choose any two cards to begin.

How to play

  1. Tap or click two different cards. Keyboard players can use Tab and Enter or Space.
  2. Matching symbols stay face up with a check mark. Different symbols stay visible until your next card tap, which starts a new pair.
  3. Find all six pairs to finish. Clear selection turns your current cards back over; Reset puzzle restores the whole board.

The small numbers identify card positions, not matching values. Colors are only feedback: match the symbols, not their background color.

Another small break tomorrow

Today’s pick rotates through seven fixed layouts, changing at 00:00 UTC and repeating each week. These are curated practice boards, not newly generated puzzles. Choose any layout to practice, or try the next one after finding all six pairs.

An open board stays in place when the date changes. Today’s layout opens the current pick; Reset puzzle restarts the layout you are playing. Switching layouts clears the board.

Want the same board next time? Use Open a fresh Layout above the cards, then bookmark that page. Its link opens the chosen layout on any date. The regular game address opens today’s pick. Neither link saves your progress: every new visit starts a fresh board.
