Brain Game - Memory Madness 

 

You may have seen games like this one when you were a child, or your own children may have had a game like it. But, if you are not familiar with the concept, the aim of this game is to challenge your ability to remember sounds and or colors.

Each colored part of the game contraption can light up and play sounds, the idea is for you to remember the order in which the object lights up.

The game starts off relatively easy by simply lighting up one panel and playing the sound. Your task is to then mimic it, by clicking on the same panel to make it light up and play the sound.

Then the game repeats itself, but this time two of the panels will be activated, your job again is to mimic it and play the pattern back, by clicking on the correct panels, in the corret order.

Each time you are successful the number of panels activated increases, so the memory challenge gets tougher and tougher.

The game has a scoring system and multiple levels, so you can challenge yourself each time to beat your last score or level and keep track of how well your brain is performing in this memory task each time you play, compared to other times.

It's quite challenging and definitely feels like a work out, so good luck!
