Concentration ... a memory game
Duplicate cards featuring the "battle books" are mixed up and presented face down. A player selects a card. The player is shown the card. The player then selects another card with the hopes of finding a match. If there is not a match, the cards are put back and the player tries again. If there is a match, the cards are removed. The goal is to remove all the cards in a minimum number of moves.
