## What is openpairs?

A matching pairs game for young children. Cards start face down. Turn two over: if they match, they stay up; if not, they turn back. Find every pair to finish the board.

No ads. No tracking. No accounts. No in-app purchases. No timers and no way to lose. openpairs never touches the network. It's just the game. You can even play it in airplane-mode.

MADE FOR SMALL PLAYERS
• Nothing to read: every card is a simple, bright shape
• Pairs match by shape, not colour, so it works for colour-blind players too
• Big cards with plenty of space between them
• No timer, no score to chase, no losing — the board simply gets finished

FIVE SIZES
• Very Easy starts at three pairs, and Easy, Medium, Hard and Extra Hard add more
• The board fits your screen: an iPad shows the biggest boards, and an iPhone quietly keeps the cards large enough for small fingers
• Play upright or sideways, on iPhone or iPad
