Matching Pairs (Cases Computer Simulations)

What a pleasant change from games of death and destruction. This game as its name implies is a computerised version of the childs card game where a card is turned face up one at a time and its matching pair attempted to be located. If it is not found at the first try, then the two cards are turned face down again.

This game has seven successive levels of difficulty ranging from differences in colour only, to differences in colour and pattern. If you fail to get all of the pairs in a reasonable number of tries, the program will not let you progress to the next level.

It can be played as a one or two player game and has a high score table at the end. There are catchy little tunes at each stage of the game including a snatch of "Congratulations" at the successful completion of a level.
