Easy

3×3 grid, starts with 3 items, 800ms flash speed

2

Medium

4×4 grid, starts with 4 items, 600ms flash speed

3

Hard

4×4 grid, starts with 5 items, 400ms flash speed

HOW TO PLAY

  • Watch the squares flash in sequence
  • Memorize the order of flashes
  • Click the squares in the same order
  • After each successful round, one more square is added
  • One wrong click ends the game

About Sequence Memory

Sequence Memory is a visual memory and pattern recognition game. Squares flash in a specific order, and your task is to click them in the same sequence. Each successful round adds one more square to the pattern, testing your short-term memory and visual processing speed.

Game Features

Progressive Difficulty
Each level adds one more cell to the sequence
Pattern Recognition
Colorful visual patterns for easier encoding
Memory Training
Progressive challenge for working memory

Scoring System

Your score is based on the maximum level you reach. Each successfully completed sequence advances you to the next level with one additional cell. The game continues until you make a mistake.

Level Progression:
Level 1: 1 cell → Level 2: 2 cells → Level 3: 3 cells...

Most people reach level 8-12. Exceptional performers can reach level 20+. The world record is over level 30!

Performance Tips

  • 1
    Watch the entire sequence before attempting to repeat
  • 2
    Create a mental 'story' connecting the cells in order
  • 3
    Chunk sequences into groups of 3-4 cells for easier recall
  • 4
    Stay focused - distractions break your working memory
  • 5
    Practice daily - memory capacity improves with training

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1
How does the sequence memory game work?
Watch the pattern of cells lighting up in sequence, then repeat it by clicking the same cells in the same order. Each level adds one more cell to the sequence.
Q2
What's the maximum level I can reach?
The game continues indefinitely as long as you correctly repeat sequences. Most people reach level 8-12, exceptional performers can reach level 20+. The world record is over level 30!
Q3
Why do the colors matter?
Different colors help create distinct visual patterns that your brain can encode more easily. The color variety prevents confusion and makes sequences more memorable.
Q4
Can I pause between watching and repeating?
No, this is a working memory test where you must hold the sequence in your mind and recall it immediately. Pausing would defeat the purpose of the exercise.
Q5
How can I improve my sequence memory?
Practice regularly, use visualization techniques (create a 'story' with the sequence), chunk the sequence into smaller groups, and stay focused without distractions during playback.
