Matching games are games that require players to match similar elements. As the name implies, participants need to find a match for a word, picture, or card. For example, students place 30 word cards; composed of 15 pairs, face down in random order. Each person turns over two cards at a time, with the goal of turning over a matching pair, by using their memory. This is also known as the Pelmanism principle, after Christopher Louis Pelman, a British psychologist of the first half of the 20th century. (by HABIB S BIRMA)

They include:

  • dominoes;
  • board games such as mahjong solitaire;
  • card games such as Concentration or rummy;
  • tile-matching video games.
