Introduction: Simon Says Memory Game With Arduino

This is a memory game made with an Arduino where you repeat the pattern that the coloured LED emits just like the Kid's game "Simon Says," but in a smaller form factor DIY style!

If you're looking to improve your memory skills to just want to play a challenge with your Arduino this is the project for you.

Step 1: BoM

* Arduino

* Push Buttons

* RGB LED

* Breadboard

* Wires

Step 2: Wiring

Follow the table below on how to wire the electronics components to the Arduino with additional help from the reference images above. The wire colours and description is also provided below.

Step 3: Code

const int bred = 10;
const int bgreen = 12;
const int bblue = 11;
//rgb led
const int red = 9;
const int green =5 ;
const int blue = 4;
int point = 0;
void setup() {
  pinMode (bred, INPUT);
  pinMode (bgreen, INPUT);
  pinMode (bblue, INPUT);
  pinMode (red, OUTPUT);
  pinMode (green, OUTPUT);
  pinMode (blue, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
  int randomN = random(1,3); // min max
  if (randomN == 1) {
    digitalWrite (red, HIGH);
    if (digitalRead (bred) == LOW){point +=1;}
  } else if (randomN == 2){
    digitalWrite (green, HIGH);
    if (digitalRead (bgreen) == LOW){point +=1;}
  } else if (randomN ==3) {
    digitalWrite (blue, HIGH);
    if (digitalRead (bblue) == LOW){point +=1;}
  } else {
    digitalWrite (red, LOW);
    digitalWrite (green, LOW);
    digitalWrite (blue, LOW);
  }
  
}

Step 4: Enjoy!
