Have you tried the USGS memory game with remote sensing images? Hours of innocent fun! Makes a nice starter for a lesson.

The Remote Sensing Imagery Game uses satellite images to familiarize students with geographic features of selected locations on Earth. The goal of the game is to introduce concepts of land type and land cover changes over time. 

The objective of the game is to match all image pairs in the shortest amount of time. Images are laid out in a grid system facing down with the Earth logo on top. You can choose to pair up from just 4 images, or go for 6, 8,10, 12 and even 14 images.

At the beginning of each round, the player will click an Earth logo to reveal its image. To find its match click another Earth logo. If the two images match, they will stay face-up. If not, the cards will turn back over.

By clicking on the image a pop-up will show the area changed over time. A click on the pop-up reveals information about the image's location on Earth, and its geographical features.
