"Welcome to Coding Torque, fellow coders! In today's blog post, we will be embarking on a journey to create a classic memory game using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Not only will this project be a fun and engaging coding exercise, but it will also provide a chance for you to test your memory skills as you play the game. So grab your favorite beverage and let's get started building this fun and interactive game!
Before we start, here are some more JavaScript Games you might like to create:
1. Snake Game using JavaScript
2. 2D Bouncing Ball Game using JavaScript
3. Rock Paper Scissor Game using JavaScript
4. Tic Tac Toe Game using JavaScript
5. QR Code Generator using JavaScript
I would recommend you don't just copy and paste the code, just look at the code and type by understanding it.
