Mindprint Expert Review

Fiete Match is a very cute visual memory game with engaging graphics and six puzzles that offer an increasing challenge. Every game includes 16 tiles, and the child plays against the sailor to see who can make the most pairs. This single player game has the feel of playing against a friendly opponent with no negative feedback, no time constraint, and an appropriate game length for the target age group. Children can pick their game. The games start easier with a single shape and grow in difficulty, ending in single-digit addition matching. Overall, this is a great rendition of a familiar game.

Manufacturer Description

Can you beat a real old salt at the memo game? Why not try it out and take on sailor Fiete!
In what is surely the most beautiful memo game, Seemann Fiete invites you to a game of “looking for pairs” in his lighthouse. Behind every porthole of the lighthouse, another exciting memo game with different themes and varying degrees of difficulty awaits you.

In Fiete Match, Fiete is the children’s opponent. In this memo game, Fiete picks up the cards and shows different reactions just like a real player - depending on whether he wins or loses. If you take a little longer to decide, Fiete sometimes even starts to yawn. The memo game in the lighthouse is thus guaranteed to make you laugh :)

This memo game is hand-drawn and can be played at various levels of difficulty. You can set the number of memo cards and also how well Fiete should play. The higher the floor in the lighthouse the trickier the tasks.

In addition to logic, abstraction and memo, this hidden pairs game also offers kids a fun way and train their empathy.
