Tiles light up in a sequence. Each one plays its own note. When the grid goes dark, tap the pattern back from memory. Memotap turns a simple memory drill into a game you can hear: every tile has a note on a pentatonic scale, so a sequence is also a short tune, and your ear helps your eyes remember. LEVELS Twenty chapters and more than a thousand levels. Sequences get longer, reveals get faster, and at level 101 the grid grows from 3×3 to 4×4. Every tenth level is a boss with a twist: grey tiles with no colour hints, reverse order, or double speed. HEARTS AND STARS Three wrong taps end a run, two on bosses. Clear a level for one star, clear it without a mistake for two, and beat the star time for three. Replay any level from the Journey map to improve. DAILY CHALLENGE One shared puzzle a day, the same for everyone in the world. One attempt. Build a streak and share your result as an emoji grid. SKINS Stars unlock eight tile palettes, from Neon and Pastel to Mono for players who want no colour help at all. ALSO • Game Center leaderboards for stars, levels and daily streaks • Progress synced across your devices with iCloud • Sound, haptics, light and dark mode, a reduce flashing option • Interactive tutorial, works fully offline • No ads, no subscriptions, no account Memotap is made by one developer.
