How to Play

Click on two cards to flip them over. If they match, they'll be removed from the board. If not, they will be flipped face down. Continue until all the cards are matched.

Features

Characters

Change characters used by clicking on the links. The url parameter characters controls what characters are used in the game. This is useful if you are trying to teach someone specific characters like those in their name.

A computer voice will recite the character. There are voice controls at the bottom of the page for setting voice type and volume.

There are also handy URLs at the bottom of the page preconfigured for particular character lists.

Words

Words can be specified to be on the cards using the words query string variable. The format of the words should be:

?words=text1:pronunciation1,text2,text3,text4:pronunciation4

You can either provide some text which will be pronounced as is, or use a colon to denote the pronunciation that should be used. Words are comma-delimited.

Font Size

It is important to set the font size since you may have some really long words. This is done via the fontSize query parameter. Example:

?fontSize=50pt
