What to Expect
You get one minute to memorize images on 16 tiles before they are flipped face down. The game offers three variants: bidding to recall tiles, moving a shared pawn to guess tile images, or writing down remembered tiles. Each mode tests your memory differently in a quick 5-minute round.
Who Is This Game For?
This game suits families and casual players who enjoy short sessions. With easy rules and a 5-minute playtime, it's perfect for party settings or quick breaks. No prior experience is needed, and it is recommended for players aged 7 and up playing with peers.
How It Works
At the start, players study 16 tiles showing different images for one minute, then cover them. In the first variant, players bid to identify which tile is where. The second has everyone move a shared pawn on the tiles to guess the image underneath. The third variant involves all players writing down what they recall. The mechanics combine Memory, Auction / Bidding, and Roll / Spin and Move.
