Wow Hans! As Fabrice mentioned, this is really like kind of a language and messaging from an ancient time… The shapes are genius. I believe playing this game with open cards is already a challenge to find the matching pairs. I just imagine how difficult it would be to play it as an old fashioned memory with the pictures covered… At least one would have to reduce the number of pairs significantly… Great thing, thank you so much!

Of course it screams metapost but tex and lua are also involved. See it as compensation for the lack of an end-of-year update. The last page of the result has a bit of explanation.
