Memory Serves
Exercise your memory by delivering bags to hotel guests.
As a bellhop, you’ll need to keep track of your ever-changing inventory as you pick up and drop off the right set of bags to your hotel guests. As you get better, your job will challenge your memory updating skills to keep track of more luggage and more types of luggage.
Why Play Memory Serves?
Memory Serves is designed to challenge your Working Memory—your ability to hold and revise short-term information as it changes. As you deliver bags to guests, you’ll have to stay organized, remember what you're carrying, and update your memory with each delivery or pickup.
Working Memory
Keep track of multiple pieces of information while actively using them.
Memory Updating
Revise your memory in real time as your task evolves.
Multitasking Under Pressure
Manage ongoing changes while staying focused on your goal.
Memory Serves vs Other Memory Games
While many memory games ask you to recall a fixed pattern or sequence, Memory Serves keeps you on your toes by requiring constant memory updating. You're not just remembering—you’re replacing, adjusting, and adapting on the fly.
