Characters

 * Casey

Premise
Casey promised Kisha he'd loan her his art book, but trying to bring it right away, he tripped on a rock, and the pictures in it fell out, and he needs help putting them back in the right places. Play Casey's memory game to uncover clues about the artwork, and then choose the correct picture that fits the clues to place it back in the art book.

Description
Casey will spin the art wheel. The player clicks on the doors on the art wheel to uncover images underneath. The player needs to find matching images. For each match the player finds, he or she will receive a clue about the artwork that Casey needs. Once the player has matched all of the images and thus found all of the clues, he or she will have to look at a set of artworks and select the one that Casey needs. After the player successfully returns two artworks to Casey's art book, he or she will receive a piece for Kisha's art rides.

The player can also click on Casey's art book at any time during the activity and view the pictures they've collected inside of it. The artworks are separated into five categories: Portraits, Group Portraits, Landscapes, Still Lifes, and Other Art Forms. Each artwork will also have a set of icons on its left when viewed. Each icon stands for one of the elements of the artwork, such as its style, the medium it was created with, and the artist who created it.

Difficulty level differences

 * Level 1: The player must makes four matches. There are no wildcards. The player must determine the correct artwork out of two works of art.
 * Level 2: The player must match six matches. If the player chooses a wildcard on his or her first try, he or she has to match it, or else the wheel will spin and mix up all the cards that have not been matched yet. The player must determine the correct artwork out of three works of art.
 * Level 3: The player must match eight matches. If the player choose a wildcard on either his or her first or second try and fails to find its match, the wheel will spin and mix up all the cards that have not been matched yet. The player must determine the correct artwork out of four works of art.

Gameplay Instructions

Casey the cat needs your help! A bunch of artworks fell out of his art book, and he doesn't remember where they all go. Play his memory game to collect clues about the artwork, then choose the artwork the clues describe so Casey can put it back in his book. Casey will spin the art wheel, then you click on two doors to see if they contain matching clues. If they do, the clue will go to the center of the wheel. If not the doors will close and you can try again. But watch out for wildcards! In Level 2, if you choose a wildcard first, you'll have to match it, or else Casey will spin the wheel and mix up all the remaining cards. In Level 3, Casey will mix up the cards if any wildcard goes unmatched.
