The story of Mansarda’s memory games began in 2020, when Studio ribizla. developed the first editions dedicated to the butterflies, birds and mammals of Montenegro. Since then, year after year, the collection has grown into a series of original educational games that present Montenegro’s nature, cultural heritage and distinctive character through illustration, knowledge and play.
By matching pairs, children and adults develop concentration, attention and visual memory while discovering animal and plant species, landscapes, notable figures, local stories and cultural symbols. Designed and produced in Montenegro, the memory games are created for families, kindergartens, schools, cultural institutions and curious travellers. They combine knowledge, aesthetics and fun – a screen-free activity, an educational tool and an original souvenir from Montenegro.
