How the Food Board Works
Every tile on this board is something to eat. The set mixes fruit such as apples, bananas, grapes, watermelon, strawberries, cherries, pineapple, kiwi and lemons with vegetables like carrots, corn and mushrooms, and treats like pizza, burgers, donuts, cookies, cheese, pretzels, popcorn and cupcakes. Each board shows 12 tiles, and exactly two of them match. Click both to score, and a new board appears.
Food emojis share a lot of colors. Reds, yellows and browns turn up again and again, so the matching pair hides among close neighbors from the first board on. You have 60 seconds, a wrong click costs 2 seconds, and your best food score is saved separately from the other modes.
Tips for the Food Board
- Split fruit from treats. Fruit and vegetables look fresh and bright, while baked treats are mostly brown and beige. Checking one group at a time cuts the board in half.
- Mind the red fruit. Apples, strawberries and cherries are all red. Look at the leaves and the shape before you click.
- Count the yellows. Bananas, lemons, corn and cheese are easy to mix up at a glance, and they often appear together.
