It’s a memory-type matching game with a small town murder ambiance.

\n

Match at least two pairs, then click on the “healing pairs” button at the center top before the spiders make it back up to the button.

\n

At the end of every round, you get options on how to spend your matches.

\n

More matches == more healing. Also, some rounds have special options.

\n

At least one person must survive all 13 rounds.

\n

Good Luck 🤞

The graphics are interesting, nice use of emojies! The musics and spiders add some tension.

\n

I didnt notive right away that you were showing the colours already known to help, once I spotted that was getting more pairs. The only issue is the game style stayed the same, matching pairs.

Not bad. Sometimes I felt the hexagons blended in with the background and I wasn’t seeing them clearly.

The game gives a creepy atmosphere using clever filters, effects, music and speech. I like the twist where you have to save your friends.

Nice use of emoji and filters for ambience!

keeping the opened tile known was helpful but the spiders are very fast

Great work and great game, I like the matching pairs, The history on mouse over was a very nice touch. Great work and wonderful game!

A fun pairs matching game. I appreciated the hints when you hover on the hexagons.

\n

Eerie music and grainy dark picture made it quite atmospheric.

\n

I wasn’t sure if I was against the clock or the spiders? I kept forgetting to press the button at the top before the spiders got there.

Dark and bleak game! Excellent theme integration. I lost track of the spiders as a ‘timer’ as I was focused on the flipping cards themselves being the only color thing on screen, and the sheer amount of cards. It seemed a touch unresponsive/low frame rate for me, but I still enjoyed playing. I noticed on second playthru the ‘xray’ feature on cards you ’d already flipped, so that was helpful. Good game.

The game doesn’t work on Firefox at all because “window.speechSynthesis is undefined”. Please be careful to check for the availability of non standard APIs.

\n

I don’t quite understand the lore of the game. What are the paint blobs supposed to signify? Why are there spiders? Are the spiders making people sick?

\n

I guess the game was too hard, so you added the mouse hover effect, but doesn’t that defeat the point of a memory game?

The noir mood is very well set, making you feel that you are racing against the clock (and the spiders) to save the town from a curse.

\n

Excellent gfx, audio track to match, although the speech synthesis has a strange accent that makes it really hard to understand (and even more with the level up messages – is that sanskrit ?). That was under Firefox, it stays silent under Chromium.

\n

This is a clever twist on the basic memory game, loved the fact that hovering the mouse over an already revealed tile show an outline of the shape. The 13 tiles are unneeded IMHO.

This game was a little difficult to get started with for me - since the Healing Pairs option was not super clear to me - but once it clicked I had a really good time with the game. Interesting mechanics and getting at least one person to survive 13 rounds is quite the challenge!
