Description & Goals

Summary

The game memorize is about finding matching pairs. A pair can consist of any multimedia object. At the moment these are images, sounds and text but this could be extended to animations or movie snippets as well. Which pairs do match is up to the creator of the game. Memorize is actually more than just a predefined game you can play, it allows you to create new games yourself as well.


Goals

- memorization
- combine objects in a different context
- dealing with multimedia objects
- way of exploring the mesh
- creating new games
- activity that will use captured sounds and images to create new games

Collaboration

Memorize does feature collaborative playing at the moment. Another goal is to add collaboration for editing a game as well.

Screenshots

The following screenshot shows the single player mode. Player olga has found one matching pair which is reflected by the tiles in the players color and the updated points next to the player icon. The current game is called 'numbers' and its pairs consist of a character and an image.
