Why we picked this?

DUO! is unlike any memory game you’ve ever played. Sure, you’re still required to tap on cards to flip them over, memorize their positions, and match pairs, but that’s where the similarities end. Each level offers a new and exciting challenge, where you must achieve specific goals, utilize wild cards, follow cards as they are shuffled, and much more. You’re awarded bonus points for creating matches consecutively, which will help you achieve a perfect rating and unlock new levels.

Gamers of all ages are going to enjoy DUO! You can even send challenges to friends and family to see who has the best memory.

Like any memory game, it has elements of chance. With the elements of chance comes frustration since you must achieve perfect ratings in order to continue to unlock levels.
