memory game
Flip and match
A memory game tests players' ability to recall information, typically by matching pairs of face-down cards that must be turned over two at a time.
Players try to remember card positions from previous turns to find matches.
The term extends to any game or activity designed to exercise recall: We played memory games on the road trip to keep the kids entertained.
