How to Play Classic Concentration

Quick start

Press START, choose a new game or enter a code, then select the player setup and contestant. Move the cursor with the D-pad and press A to reveal two numbered spaces. Remember every unmatched prize location. As the rebus becomes readable, choose to solve it rather than risk giving away another turn. Win two rounds to reach the timed car-matching final.

Controls

D-pad: move the cursor on the board and text-entry grids. A: select a numbered tile or letter. B: finalize contestant selection. START: start the game and individual rounds. Other choices are made through on-screen menus.

Classic Concentration — About this game

Classic Concentration recreates the game show's combination of memory matching and picture-word puzzles. Players choose numbered spaces from a 25-tile board, remember revealed prizes, and remove matching pairs to expose pieces of an underlying rebus. Solving two of three rebuses reaches the final round, where pairs of cars must be matched against a 35-second timer. It supports solo play against the computer or multiplayer competition and can reproduce boards through game codes.
