Universal:
Children are able to play eight, 12, and 20 card games. The 20 card game option is only available on iPad, however. They’re also able to pick from 10 different card types. When the game begins, all your child has to do is tap on a downward facing card to reveal it and try to match it with another as quickly as possible. After a game has completed, they’ll see a message of success and a new game will begin. The iPad version of Matching also includes a two player split screen mode to double the fun.
