Recently, while watching my kid 🧒🏻 playing free memory games on her tablet, I noticed her struggling with an overwhelming number of ads and annoying pop-up banners.
This inspired me to build a similar game for her. Since she's currently into anime, I decided to create the game using cute anime-style images.
In this article, I'll walk you through the process of building the game for yourself or your kids 🎮.
We'll begin by exploring the game features, then cover the tech stack and project structure—both of which are straightforward. Finally, we'll discuss optimizations and ensuring smooth gameplay on mobile devices 📱.
If you want to skip the reading, here 💁 is the GitHub repository 🙌. And here you can see the live demo.
In this tutorial, we’ll build a challenging memory card game with React that tests your recall abilities. Your goal is to click unique anime images without clicking the same one twice. Each unique click earns you points, but be careful—clicking an image twice resets your progress.

The game will help you test your memory skills while enjoying cute anime pictures. Can you achieve the perfect score?
