+# Memory Game
+
+A Blazor WebAssembly application designed to help people with dementia practice image-to-word associations.
+
+## Features
+
+- **10-Round Game Sessions**: Each game consists of 10 rounds to provide a focused practice session
+- **Dual Game Modes**:
+  - Show an image with 4 word choices
+  - Show a word with 4 image choices
+- **Adaptive Learning**: 
+  - Words answered correctly become less frequent in future games
+  - Words answered incorrectly appear more often for additional practice
+- **Progress Tracking**: Statistics are stored in browser local storage and persist across sessions
+- **Tablet-Optimized UI**: Designed for 11" tablets with large, easy-to-tap buttons
+- **Simple Vocabulary**: Uses everyday objects (fork, knife, door, ball, house, etc.)
+- **Immediate Feedback**: Shows whether the answer was correct or incorrect after each round
+- **Game Results**: Displays total correct and incorrect answers at the end of each game
+
+## Technology Stack
+
+- **.NET 10.0**: Using the latest .NET framework
+- **Blazor WebAssembly**: Client-side web application that runs entirely in the browser
+- **Local Storage**: Browser-based persistence for tracking progress across sessions
+- **SVG Images**: Scalable vector graphics for clear display on all screen sizes
+
+## Getting Started
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- [.NET 10.0 SDK](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/10.0)
+
+### Running the Application
+
+1. Clone the repository:
+   ```bash
+   git clone https://github.com/clayschaad/MemoryGame.git
+   cd MemoryGame
+   ```
+
+2. Navigate to the project directory:
+   ```bash
+   cd MemoryGame
+   ```
+
+3. Run the application:
+   ```bash
+   dotnet run
+   ```
+
+4. Open your browser and navigate to the URL shown in the console (typically `http://localhost:5000`)
+
+### Building for Production
+
+To build the application for deployment:
+
+```bash
+dotnet publish -c Release
+```
+
+The published files will be in `bin/Release/net10.0/publish/wwwroot/` and can be hosted on any static web server.
+
+## How to Use
+
+1. **Start Screen**: Click "Start New Game" to begin a new game session
+2. **Game Rounds**: 
+   - Read the question (image or word)
+   - Select the correct answer from 4 options
+   - Receive immediate feedback
+   - Wait 2 seconds before automatically moving to the next round
+3. **Results**: After 10 rounds, view your score and click "Play Again" to start a new game
+
+## Game Statistics
+
+The application tracks performance for each word/image pair:
+- **Correct Count**: Number of times the word was answered correctly
+- **Incorrect Count**: Number of times the word was answered incorrectly
+- **Priority**: Calculated based on performance (higher priority = more frequent appearance)
+
+This data is stored in browser local storage and persists across sessions, enabling the adaptive learning feature.

+1. Add an SVG image to `wwwroot/images/` (name it `[word].svg`)
+2. Update the `_defaultWords` list in `Services/GameService.cs`:
+   ```csharp
+   new() { Word = "newword", ImagePath = "images/newword.svg", CorrectCount = 0, IncorrectCount = 0 }
+   ```
