Puzzle-Memo is a board game released in 2019 for 2–4 players, 15–20 minutes per game, and ages 5 and up. It was designed by Günter Burkhardt and its main mechanics are Tile Placement and Memory.
When the sun rises over the jungle in Puzzle-Memo, its light illuminates the animals which live there. In the center of the table, a game board shows the silhouettes of various animals of different sizes (1-4 tiles big). The tiles with the illuminated animals are shuffled and placed near the bottom of the board. Players take turns flipping over a tile and checking whether it fits in the bottom row of the board. If yes, they place it; if not, they place it face down near the top of the board. Players can choose whether they want to flip open tiles from the bottom or from the top, but tiles can only be placed if all spaces below them have already been filled. Some tiles have special functions when they are flipped open. A player who manages to complete an animal moves their pawn along a victory point track. Pawns will be stacked and can carry other pawns toward victory. When the jungle is fully in the sunlight, the player whose pawn went furthest wins. —user summary
Puzzle-Memo supports 2–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Puzzle-Memo is 15–20 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Puzzle-Memo for ages 5 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Puzzle-Memo has a complexity rating of 1.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
