The memory game that makes them focus on you

A card-matching game your attendees play before or after the survey. They memorize the board, it hides, then they race to match every pair. Speed and accuracy set their score.

Features

What you can set up

Three board sizes

Choose Easy (4 pairs), Medium (6) or Hard (8) to match your crowd and the time they have to play.

Live leaderboard

Rank players by best overall score or fastest time and show the board live on a screen at your booth.

Fair play

Every attendee gets a different card layout, so nobody can copy, and Scaniam checks that a result is genuine before a prize is given.

Why it works

Why it works at a booth

A memory game asks for real attention, and attention is exactly what a busy booth is competing for. For the length of one round the attendee is focused entirely on your screen, which is a better outcome than a giveaway they forget the moment they walk away.

The study-then-hide moment is a natural hook. Watching someone concentrate and then celebrate a clear pulls other people in, and the short race to finish gives your booth staff a clear cue for when to start the conversation.

Because the game produces a score, it turns into a contest. A live leaderboard on a screen gives people a reason to tell a colleague to come and beat their time, which keeps your booth busy through the day.

Every player gets a fresh, randomly arranged board, so the person next in line cannot simply copy what they just watched. Scaniam checks that a result is genuine before a prize is given.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does a memory match game work at an event booth?

Before or after your survey, the attendee sees the board for a few seconds to memorize, then it hides. They flip cards to find matching pairs until the board is cleared. Their time and number of tries set their score, and they receive a gift code.

Can I run it as a leaderboard contest?

Yes. You can rank players by best overall score or fastest time and show the leaderboard live on a screen at your booth. You pick how many top players win and when the contest closes.

Can players cheat by watching the person before them?

Copying does not help. Every attendee gets a different, randomly arranged board, so a layout cannot be copied down the line. Scaniam checks that a result is genuine before a prize is given.

Do attendees need to install an app?

No. They scan your QR code and play in their phone browser. There is nothing to download and no hardware to rent.

Is the memory match game free to use?

Yes. It is on the Scaniam free plan within your monthly response limit.
