How to Play Simon Says
- Watch the coloured pads light up in a sequence.
- Repeat the sequence by tapping the pads in the same order.
- Each round adds one more step to the pattern.
- One wrong pad ends the run — how long a sequence can you hold?
Tips & Strategy
- Chunk the pattern into groups of 3–4 colours like a phone number.
- Use the tones, not just the colours — audio memory is a free second channel.
- Keep a steady rhythm when replaying; rushing is the main cause of slips.
Simon Says — Frequently Asked Questions
How many rounds does it take to be 'good'?
Reaching a sequence of 8 is solid, 14+ is excellent. The average player falls between 5 and 8.
Does the game speed up?
Yes, playback gets snappier as the sequence grows, which raises the pressure even though the pads never change.
Is sound required to play?
No, you can play purely visually — but the tones genuinely help memory, so headphones are an advantage.
