Classic Concentration Style Game
I've enjoyed the posts in these forums for a long time but have never shared anything myself. I wanted to stretch myself and leverage the JavaScript API to go beyond basic triggers.
I built this in Articulate Storyline as a classic concentration-style memory game, but with a rebus puzzle twist. Instead of just matching identical cards, you’re flipping tiles to uncover visual clues that come together to form a phrase.
Storyline handled most of the front-end work—layout, tile states, and click interactions. I used variables to keep track of which tiles were selected and whether a match was made.
Where things got more interesting was with JavaScript. I tapped into Storyline’s JavaScript API to handle some of the game logic that would’ve been clunky (or not really possible) with triggers alone. That included things like limiting how many tiles can be flipped at once, comparing selections, and resetting tiles when they don’t match.
Overall, it’s a mix of Storyline for the structure and JavaScript for the logic, which made the interaction feel a lot smoother and more game-like.
