It's an easy game to recognise - if you've ever played the memory game Pairs. The idea is you keep turning over pairs of tiles until you find a pair with matching pictures. To complete a level you must match up all the tiles it contains. You'll win prizes for each level you complete. As you progress through the levels they get harder - and there are more pairs to find in each. If you get all the way to level 20 you will win the new Divine Fern.
How to play
Turn over your tiles two by two.
Each pair you turn over costs you one key.
If the two tiles you turn over show the same picture, then you've found a pair and it gets removed from the level. If they don't match, they will turn back over and you have to try again.
Top tip: Draw a diagram of your tiles and make a note of what they are as you turn them over (or take screenshots). This way you won't waste any keys guessing. This will be particularly useful on the later levels when there will be a lot of tiles and you won't necessarily be able to finish the level in one go.
How to get keys:
- when you first log in (6 per day)
- by completing objectives
- by buying them with passes
The game also includes jokers which you can use to help you identify where a tile's matching pair might be. There are three different types and you can get them by completing objectives or by buying them with passes.
Jokers:
- The 4 Make a Pair joker highlights 4 tiles, one of which is the twin of the tile you turned over.
- The Favorable Alignment joker highlights the row or column where the twin of the tile you turned over is hidden.
- The Family Ties joker highlights tiles in the same series as the tile you turned over.
Each level gives you a certain number of objectives that allow you to gain more keys and jokers. Make sure you complete all your objectives before you finish the level in order to not miss out.
I'm quite excited about this contest as it's something new to try. Really pleased Howrse have come up with something a bit different instead of rolling out versions of contests we've seen before.
Get those memories sharpened up and happy matching!

P.S. Coming soon - the Wandering Horses are back. Keep your eyes peeled!
