Mischievous Pairs

Mischievous Pairs is a cute memory-match card game with two little dogs, a chihuahua and a pug, sitting at a card table. You flip cards, remember where each picture is, and find the matches. It works on a phone, a tablet or a computer, and it is one of the easiest games on this site to pick up with a child.

The main menu has three buttons:

Play (with a two-card icon): find the pairs.
Play (with a three-card icon): find the triples.
Play With Friend: a two-player duel on one device.

A coin counter and a daily gift button are in the menu too. According to the developer, the card sets include animals, fruits and everyday items, and the one-player modes have hundreds of levels and a timer.

The duel is the reason to try it with a friend. According to the developer, each turn lasts ten seconds and the board reshuffles every minute, so you can't simply memorise the table and wait. The board in our test had 20 cards in 4 columns and 5 rows. The two dogs' pictures are at the top and bottom of the screen, and a coloured ring around the active player's picture counts down their turn. The scores are printed next to the pictures. When we flipped a card, it showed a chameleon, and then the ring moved to the other player.

An ad played before the duel started in our test. We didn't play a full duel.

How to play

Choose Play With Friend and skip the ad.
Player 1 sits at the bottom of the screen and Player 2 at the top. The ring around a player's picture shows whose turn it is.
On your turn, tap one card, then a second card. If the two pictures match, you score and keep going.
If they don't match, they flip back over and it's your friend's turn.
Each turn lasts ten seconds, and the board reshuffles every minute. The player with more matches at the end wins.

Tips

Remember what your friend flips. Their misses are free information for you.
Be quick. The ten-second turn timer is short.
Don't count on old memories. After a reshuffle, the cards are in new places.
Want a calm game? Play the pairs mode on your own first.
