Visual Memory: what to know before playing
Read the aim of Visual Memory, then make your first move. Select every square that was shown. Selecting an unshown square ends the session. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Compare the starting position with the example in the Guide. Look at what changes after your first action.
