Included vocabulary and random repeats; a game, not a medical memory assessment.

Read before acting

Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Use the example to check your reasoning.

Your goal

Identify new and previously seen words before losing three lives. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Take a moment to understand the current position.

Step by step

  1. Read each displayed word.
  2. Choose New word or Seen before.
  3. Remember words from this round only.
  4. Three mistakes end the round.

Controls

Click or tap one of the two answer buttons. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. A new-round button replaces the current round.

A useful example

PLANT seen earlier in the same round requires Seen before. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Choose a deliberate next step.

Watch out for this

A word from an earlier round does not count as seen now. Compare the situation with the worked example. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
