Bamboozle is the ever-popular game where you compete with a partner to match pairs of picture-cards, flipping them over to find matching images. If you're lucky and find two cards that match, you get another go, and keep getting more goes until two cards fail to match and then it's your partner's turn. Sounds familiar? Well, with full integration with Game Center, Bamboozle has now got even better! With Solo Play you can still compete with the App's AI and in Duo Play you can find other players across the World! There are Game Center Leaderboards for both Solo and Duo modes and Achievements to be won as you progress. Bamboozle's AI offers the right level of challenge whether you're a happy-go-lucky gamer or an academic expert with perfect memory! You decide how much challenge you want. For a relaxed game, Bamboozle plays 'blindfolded', just turning over cards randomly. To really test the 'little grey cells' challenge Bamboozle to a game at its 'Hard' or even 'Wicked' skill levels where it sees all the cards that turn over and forgets nothing! There is an In-App Purchase that you can buy to create your own picture games from Images in your Photo Library, entirely private to your device and letting you enjoy your favourite family memories was you play.
