      • Time limits vary depending on the size of the board:

      • 4 x 4 – 16 seconds
      • 5 x 5 – 21 seconds
      • 6 x 6 – 26 seconds
    • Active – This does not have a time limit but it’s a trickier mode. When you’ve previously selected 2 blocks but have not matched them, these two blocks can switch places.
      • 2 blocks can switch anytime randomly. This can mess with your memory, which makes the puzzle harder to solve.

      • However, if the next block you select does not match your previous block, both blocks will return to it’s dark gray color.

  • Strategy
    • This unique virtual hearing game will test your listening and memory skills.
    • Similar to memory card game, the objective is to choose two blocks that match. But instead of card design, you must match their tone.
    • The game is extra challenging because all the blocks look exactly the same. Each block is dark gray when unselected. Selected blocks turn light gray.
    • Except for tone and position, it’s hard to remember where a block is unless you really pay attention.
      • Practice mode will help train your ear to recognize and differentiate tones faster. Choose this mode first before playing Timed and Active Mode.
      • There is no shortcut to acing the game. The idea is to train your ear to be receptive to pitch and to remember block positions.
      • Musicians or singers may have an advantage in this game. These people tend to have more developed ears for recognizing pitch.
      • Once you’ve mastered Practice mode for all four boards, test your skills under Timed mode.
      • Timed mode must be completed in a matter of seconds. A larger board provides more time.
      • Under timed mode, it’s worth making a wild guess to get the right match. Try to see how many blocks you can match within the time limit.
      • Active mode is another challenging option. Here, previously selected blocks may switch randomly anytime within the game.
    • If you’re keen on practicing your listening and tone sensitivity, as well as sharpening your memory, you’ll enjoy playing this unique sound matching game.
    • Kids and adults can play this game and compare scores. Players can even help each other distinguish pitch if they’re having a hard time.
    • But to be fair, try to play the game solo without any help. It’s best to practice your listening and memory skills without help from another player.

  • Joey says:

    Tonality is a unique take on the memory game genre. Instead of matching pictures, you must match sounds. This adds a unique challenge because you must remember the exact pitch of the sound. Expect to spend the opening of larger games familiarizing yourself with the tones. At the end of each round, the game gives you key statistics. These include the amount of times you missed.

  • Debindra Dhakal says:

    As a visually impaired person, I attempted to play the game but was unable to fully experience it. I suggest making the game more accessible for individuals like me so that we may also play and enhance memory and listening skills. I hope this request is taken into consideration. Thank you.
