This app is a memory game with a cute twist the whole family can get in on. The game can be played with up to four players who get to test their memory skills with a matching game of pairs. Seems simple enough, but the twist lies in which pairs you get. Ahhhh. Each set has a specific character who holds a special power, maybe a plot twist, a bizarre characteristic or a setting. Whoever wins has to make up a story based on the characteristics of the pairs they won. As you may be able to imagine, the story telling can get quite silly when your cards include:
Plot-Ray saves the day
Setting-the tallest tower in the world
Special-tell the story in a sped up voice
While the rest of the players have to sit and listen to the winner spin their tale, there is an opportunity for them to interrupt with a ‘roar’ and change the course of the story’s events. However it shakes down, the app offers an opportunity for togetherness, something apps can have the tendency to work against, and it also sparks some intense creativity in the story telling department.
Oh forget to mention, these stories can be recorded and archived, ready to be replayed at future gatherings like graduations and weddings.
Have fun.
