A classic memory game, sized for preschoolers
Match & Match is a straightforward memory/concentration game: flip two cards, and if they show the same animal they stay matched, otherwise they flip back over. The Easy setting uses just 3 pairs (6 cards total), small enough for a 3 year old to hold in their head, while Medium and Hard add more pairs for older siblings who want a bigger challenge.
It's a single-player game, no bot or second player needed, so kids can play at their own pace and try to beat their own best move count.
