-==About Visual Match==
-Visual Match is a pattern-matching game written for Sugar; it is included as part of the honey collection of Sugar add-ons. The object of the game is to find sets of three cards where each attribute—color, shape, number of elements, and shading—either match on all three cards or are different on all three cards. The current version doesn't yet support sharing with multiple players or saving to the Journal, but it can be played by a single player.

-=== i18n ===
-Visual Match has not yet been translated into any languages other than English.
-(See [https://dev.laptop.org/translate/ our Pootle server] for details about how to translate Visual Match into your language.)
-==More details==
-Cards ha four different attributes: color, shape, fill texture, and number of elements.
-:(The number version works with prime factors instead of shapes and textures.)
-:(The word version works with semantic groupings.)
-Play by clicking on three cards to make a group. If it is a valid group, it will be moved on the left (in the blank-card zone.) It will be repaced by new cards from the deck.
-A valid group is defined by cards where each attribrute is either the same on each card or different on each card, e.g, all three red cards or one red, one green, and one blue card.
-An invalid group is when two cards share and attribute and the thrid card does not, e.g., one red and two green cards.
-Groups must be valid across all four attributes. Examples of valid and invalid groups are shown below.
-Watch out, because it can be very addictive.
-===Examples of matches===
-[[Image:One-red-circle.png]] [[Image:Two-red-circles.png]] [[Image:Three-red-circles.png]] colors, shapes, and shade match; numbers are different
-[[Image:One-red-circle.png]] [[Image:One-green-ex.png]] [[Image:One-blue-check.png]] numbers match; colors, shapes and shade are different
-[[Image:One-red-circle.png]] [[Image:Three-blue-checks.png]] [[Image:Two-green-exes.png]] everything is different
-===Examples of mismatches===
-[[Image:One-red-circle.png]] [[Image:Two-red-circles.png]] [[Image:Three-green-circles.png]] two of the same colors
-[[Image:One-red-circle.png]] [[Image:One-green-ex.png]] [[Image:One-blue-ex.png]] two of the same shape
-[[Image:One-red-circle.png]] [[Image:Three-blue-checks.png]] [[Image:Two-green-exes-solid.png]] two of the same shade
-[[Image:One-red-circle.png]] [[Image:Two-blue-circles.png]] [[Image:Two-green-circles.png]] two of the same number
