Title: What is this card game called?
Post by: modene1 on February 22, 2019, 01:30:11 AM

Hi folks,

I want to create an online card game for my students to help them learn English in a fun way.

I can't find the right words to search for this game as I don't know it's name!

You get a pack of cards and select say 10 matching pairs. Mix them up, turn them face down and players take turns to turn over 2 cards. If they match they keep them and score 1 point. If they don't match you turn them face down again.

What's this old one called?!

Thanks!

Mark hoca  :)

It's called Memory, Concentration, or Pelmanism.
