FAQ
Why are proverbs good for exercising memory?
Well-known sayings tend to be remembered through repetition over a lifetime, staying stored in long-term memory — completing a proverb calls on that kind of memory, different from the more recent memory used in other games.
What happens if I get the answer wrong?
Nothing serious: the right option is always shown right after, so you learn the saying even when you miss it — there's no point loss for a wrong answer, only for using hints.
