Has anyone created a concentration game on Storyline? Do you know of any engines that already exist? Any suggestions? I thought I would use layers and valuables. But would rather not invent the wheel if someone has already done so. mkw
Still working on my concentration game. I've got my cards flipping and when 2 cards match they disappear revealing a portion of the image beneath. It is working very efficiently......too efficiently, learners don't get a chance to see what makes the two cards a match. Is there a way I can build a timer or a delay into the process? Thanks for all your help. mkw
I started with Stephanie's Memory Game as my backdrop. My goal is to be able to work with 9 matched pairs and to randomly scatter the cards around the screen (to allow for multiple plays). I would share what I have so far, but I can't seem to get the files through our firewall. Not sure what the problem is. Is there an e-mail I can send the zipped folder? mkw
During the Storyline beta, I developed a combination concentration/tic tac toe game. Although there are some bugs that I never addressed, it works pretty well and you may get a couple ideas from it. This is the link to the thread.
The demo link in the thread is no longer active, but this demo works.
This is comes really close to what I want to do. Are you willing to share your story file? I figured I would be working mostly with triggers and states. But I would love to know how you are randomly assorting the matched pairs. I see you solved the timing issue by leaving the cards visible. I wonder, can a state be animated?
Nice job John U! Great interaction with built in incentives for users to get the matches right so they can fill in the tic-tac-toe board. I'd love to see the triggers, states and variables that make this work.
Thanks for the feedback. This is the link to the Story file.
Keep in mind that in creating the game, my goal was speed of development not efficiency of the code. Assuming no compromise on quality of the product and future maintenance, the trade off between the two typically weighs heaviest to development speed. I am certain you can find some better ways to achieve the same features. Have fun.

Hey Mary Kay!
You may be in luck
Check this out and see if it might be what you're looking for...

Good morning Mary Kay,
Any chance you can share what you have so far? I'm curious to see what you have and maybe we can make some suggestions for the card speed.
Thanks!

As annoying as the sounds are, they are fun!
Thanks for sharing and your encouragement John!
