Chuck E. Cheese's Memory Match

Chuck E. Cheese's Memory Match is a custom arcade game by Coastal Amusements made for Chuck E. Cheese's locations in 1993.

The game is a standard design arcade cabinet for the time, with artwork of the main Chuck E. cast all around the sides. The game is displayed on a CRT monitor, with two speakers using mono audio output. The control panel consists of nine numbered buttons, which can light up during gameplay. The game required tokens to play, and would dispense tickets at the end of a session. The game used HAR MadMax hardware,

The cabinet would also see a Spanish release, replacing the Memory Match logo on the control board for a set of instructions. Coastal Amusements would later use this as their base for the

Gameplay
The game is a standard memory matching game. Instead of matching 2 hidden objects on the same board however, you only need to match one to the current character on-screen, giving the player double the chances of a correct choice. Nine buttons are available for the player, each to pick which character curtain to unveil. The game dispenses tickets based on how many matches can be made before the time runs out.

Updated Cabinet
Around 2000-2001, new cabinets produced would contain updated artwork to match the current branding at the time.

The marquee, monitor plexi, and control panel would update Chuck E.'s design to the current style, while leaving the rest of the characters the same. All logos and branding were also changed to match the current style. The control panel would see additional changes, scaling up the character artwork, and moving the copyrighted text towards the buttons, removing the "1992" artwork copyright date seen on the original cabinet.

Voices
All characters are voiced in the game, commenting briefly on the player's actions. Chuck E. also reminds the player to take out their tickets at the end of the game. Scott Wilson, the voice of Chuck E. Cheese at the time, voices all male characters in the game, filling in Bob West's role for Jasper T. Jowls and Pasqually. Helen Henny is voiced by Karisa Mckinney, her current voice actor at the time.
