How good is your memory? Find out with PathMemory โ€” a clean, minimalist puzzle game that challenges your brain one path at a time. A path lights up on the grid. It disappears. Now tap it back โ€” in the right order. Sounds easy? It won't stay that way. HOW IT WORKS - A path appears on the grid, tile by tile - Memorize it before it vanishes - Tap the tiles in the correct order - One mistake and it's game over THE CHALLENGE GROWS As you progress, the grid gets bigger, the paths get longer, and distractions start appearing: blinking tiles, color shifts, fake paths, and even grid rotations that flip everything you just memorized. Every level pushes your spatial memory further. FEATURES - 20+ handcrafted difficulty levels with smooth progression - Expanding grids โ€” from 4ร—4 to 8ร—6 and beyond - Visual distractions: blinks, color shifts, fake paths, floating shapes - Grid transformations: rotations and mirror flips mid-game - Global leaderboard โ€” compete with players worldwide - One-tap revive per run โ€” watch a short ad to continue - Clean, minimal design with satisfying animations - Haptic feedback for every interaction - No ads during gameplay โ€” only an optional revive ad - Sign in with Google or Apple to save your score - Play offline โ€” no account required PathMemory is free to play with no paywalls, no energy systems, and no interrupting ads. Just you, the grid, and your memory. How far can you go?
