In one line: a 4×4 grid with 8 pairs, no downloads, and your best score stays saved on this device.

What makes Faces Pairs different

Every round deals a fresh shuffle, so there is no memorising the layout - only the cards you have actually seen this round. Fewer moves means a better score, and your best result is saved on the device. The a 4×4 grid with 8 pairs, so the middle of the board fills up fast and every flip matters more.

Why Faces Pairs sticks

It suits anyone with a queue to wait in or a kettle to watch: students between classes, commuters, parents stealing ten quiet minutes. There is no meta-progression to lose and nothing to catch up on - a week away costs you nothing but a little sharpness.

How to play

  1. Open Faces Pairs and press play - a 4×4 grid with 8 pairs is dealt face down.
  2. Tap any two cards to flip them over.
  3. If they match they stay open; if not, they flip back and you remember.
  4. Clear all 8 pairs in as few moves as you can - the counter tracks your best.

Tips and strategy

  • When you remember a pair, go for it immediately - later in the round you will forget.
  • Leave the cards you are least sure about for last, when fewer remain.
  • On big grids, match by region: remember what you saw in each quarter separately.
  • Start from one corner and sweep in rows - a fixed path beats random flips.
  • Say the position of a mismatch out loud in your head; verbal memory outlasts visual.

Who it suits: Perfect for players who want a real challenge in a small package - commuters, students, and anyone who enjoys beating their own record more than beating other people.
