Matchmaze is a home-grown board game for kids which mixes memory, tactics and luck. There should be everything you need here to make your own version of it. For those just wanting to grab it directly from Github, you can use the "Download ZIP" choice from the green "Code" button.
We got bored in COVID lockdown and wound up creating our own board game. It uses a homemade board, some toy figures for players, memory-matching game cards, our own board design, and a regular die. The game actually turned out to be a lot of fun so we figured we would share it so people could make their own.
This is the second iteration of the board design. The original was all drawn by hand and had a few quirks which were fixed for this version.
The images are home-grown, some by humans and some by AI. The exception of this is the board background which is made up from images of the sun are various wavelengths.
The idea and rules mostly just came up as a result of being stuck within our four walls with not a lot else to do. The rules have been generally refined since its inception but there is still likely room for improvement.
The board is made up from twelve segments which should be printed out and stuck onto card to make the full board. The memory cards should also be printed out and stuck onto slightly-thicker card. The board and card images are sized such that, if they are all printed out with the same dimensions, they should all fit correctly.
You need 80 memory cards in all but the images contain 84, leaving you with one spare set of four. There's also an empty grid which can be used as a template for creating your own.
If you want to attach the board segments together in such a way that they fold up then this can be done by making them alternately fold towards and away from one another, up and down, starting in one of the corners. The eventual folding should work such that it folds up along an 'S' shape.
Our final version looked like this:
Not amazing but it works :)
