Get Fiete Match for Free December 15-17
In Fiete Match, kids do not play against an invisible computer player, but against Fiete himself. And he sits directly opposite the children like a real teammate, reaches for the memo cards and shows different reactions – depending on whether he wins or loses.
Fiete Match can be played in different levels of difficulty. The children can adjust the number of memo cards and also how strong Fiete should play. The higher the floor in the lighthouse, the trickier the tasks become. The children have to find not only the same pictures, but also couples that fit together logically.
