A free visual-memory game. No sign-up required.

Arcana Memory turns the 78 Rider-Waite cards into a matching game. Each game uses six different cards and shows twelve tiles for a few seconds before turning them face down.

Three ways to play

In Card to card, you find two identical images. Card to name mixes six images with their six matching names. Card to meaning replaces each name with three short key ideas, so it calls for a good memory or a little more knowledge of tarot.

Major Arcana or the full deck

You can play only with the 22 Major Arcana or include Wands, Cups, Swords and Pentacles as well. The board always keeps six pairs, making each game quick and comfortable to play on a phone.

How the result is measured

Every two tiles you turn over count as one move. The goal is to complete the board in as few moves as possible: a perfect game takes six. You also see your best streak of consecutive pairs and a separate record for every combination of mode and deck.
