Memory Game

The Memory Game content type presents face-down cards that students flip to find matching pairs. The AI generates every pair — image and description — from the teacher's prompt.

Generated content

  • One generated image per pair.
  • One description per pair (e.g. an explanatory sentence about the concept), shown when the student finds the matching pair.

Rules and behavior

  • This type generates one image per pair always, even when the Generate images option of the AI modal is disabled: its content depends indispensably on its images, so this is by-design behavior, not a failure.
  • If the image of a pair fails, the generation is retried.
  • Requested exact amounts within the documented 3–100 range are generated exactly, without trimming (e.g. asking for ten or twenty-five pairs produces exactly that many), keeping the image and description of every pair. The documented hard cap is 100 pairs.
