Memory Maze
Memorise a highlighted 4-connected path inside a grid and reproduce it after the cue disappears. A visuospatial path-recall task in the tradition of the Corsi Block-Tapping test. Parameters adjust to the level and the task.
Example
A generated instance. Parameters such as difficulty, size, and symbol set are adjustable.
