Cool Old Gadgets: Simon

Simon was a round tiny buddy with 4 lights which created provoking sounds and flashlights.
The aim : let him provoke you as much as you would let him by decently repeating a sequence he would select for you to perform. Yeah, that would be a fine definition for 1978 MB’s toy. Simon was a outstanding game to be played when your house was packed with your friends so your ma would not only be driven silly by your friends but also by those robot noises that came from the battery powered toy.
We are pretty certain that many mummies regretted the instant they suspected that nothing may be worst that our wining for a Simon and acquired us one just to stop our crying. In reality, the Simon was far worst! There were 3 sorts of games :
- One player mode ( you against Simon ) : you had to copy the real sequence that Simon played.
- 2 players mode ( you against your pal ) : the players had to copy the sequence that their opponent made and add another tone.
-Two to 4 players mode : everyone would select a color and have to press their color decently to finish the sequence fast enough.
