An example before you play
Seeing a star at the top left and another star in the bottom row gives you a matching pair on a later turn. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Keep the game’s format in mind.
Watch out for this
You cannot turn a third card while a mismatched pair is still being shown. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round.
