This game is a rehash of the old "Concentration" tile game — but with a few lumps of challenge (and "The Simpsons" audio) added.
Thirty pairs of tiles are scrambled and placed face down. The player selects a tile, then attempts to select the matching tile from the remaining lot.
If a match is made, the selected tiles are removed from the game and it's that player's turn again.
If the player fails to make a match, the tiles are placed face down again in their previous positions, and it's the next player's turn.
THE GAME OF SUPER-MEMORY
Instead of searching for pairs of tiles (Twins), you may select Triplets, Quads, Quints or Sextets from the "Level" menu.
In these "super" modes, after the first tile is selected, the player is allowed to select tiles until a tile does not match the first selection.
THE TILES
Choose from "Original" or "Springfield USA" flavour — the latter having audio clips of some profound quotations from some of the more memorable citizens of Springfield, USA.
THE PLAYERS
You may choose 1 to 4 players from the "Players" menu.
In solitaire mode (1 player), a success rate is tallied. Try to attain a 50% rate (this is the worst case scenario for a player with perfect memory coupled with a chronic case of Murphy's Law).
In competition mode (2 to 4 players), the number of successful match attempts are tallied.
