About this game

Paired-associates learning has been studied since the early 20th century β€” your brain naturally links semantically related concepts. This game uses common pairs (salt/pepper, lock/key) to train associative recall.

After studying 6 pairs, you're shown one word and pick its partner from 4 options. Wrong answers reveal the correct partner so you can learn from mistakes.
