Get ready for fast-paced play with lights and sounds that challenge players with every sequence. To beat the Simon game, players need to remember the color pattern and repeat it by pressing the colored buttons on the game unit in the correct order. It starts off at a rather steady pace, but the more you play, the more complicated the patterns become, building suspense with each turn. Count 1 point each time the green light flashes, and 10 points when all the lights flash at once. The Simon game unit helps keep track of the highest score as players challenge friends or try to beat their own high score in solo play.

Clasic design with good modern updates
I was thrilled to find a full sized Simon game available.I read the review and was a little nervous about the modernization it underwent and I am pleased to say that the changes they made help bring Simon into the modern world without loosing any of that original feel i remember from my childhood.The modern changes:The buttons are no longer physical buttons but touch sensitive plastic.There is no off switch, just the on button on the front. The game counts down and turns off after each game if a new game is not started.There is an LED screen to indicate what game you are playing or what level you have reached.I’m not certain but I think this version is slightly larger than the original (which I am totally fine with having big hands)The down sides are minor and can be compensated for either by user adjustment or a slight modification.First as I saw a lot of negativity in other reviews that the button are touch sensitive and no longer physical buttons. If you play the original as a kid you may remember slamming your tinny fist down on those buttons. With touch sensitive surfaces you need to make the following mental adjustments:Pushing harder will not make it work better. It is touch sensitive not pressure sensitive. A light tap is all you need. (I have found this the hardest thing for the older generations to adjust to in emerging the touch screen world)Just because it is touch sensitive does not mean it is evenly sensitive across the surface. You do not have to touch the exact center but if you touch the edge of a color you can expect the same “iffy” result as if you had pressed the edge of a physical button the same size. As long as I was in the center two thirds of the color my touch was always registered. The outer section sometime sees you and sometimes doesn’t just like hitting the edge of a button would sometime work and sometimes not.The last adjustment is knowing that a touch sensitive button is just that, touch sensitive. So if you touch a color with two fingers and then lift one finger and then the other it may pick that up as two touches. So my advise… don’t do that.Okay, touch buttons aside, One real limitation is there is no volume control. The sound is great, clear and loud. A little too loud. The speaker holes are on the top around the “Simon” name. My solution was to simply put two strips of black electrical tape over the holes above the “Simon” name. I lined them up next to each other and carefully cut the edges to curve with the circle. I found this muted the sound to a perfect level. Loud enough to hear but not so loud as to annoy every one else in the room.The one final thing I would have liked to see is a fourth game option that is a free play, that would let you just play the buttons. I know it is small but I think it would have been a fun feature, particularly since my son is too small to play the game but does love the light up colors and sounds. It would be nice if he could play it on his own instead of having to sit in my lap and help me.I’m looking forward to the day he can understand the concept and play this himself.

This toy is smaller than the original one, but thatâs not a bad thing. Fun toy, learning while playing.

Regalato ad un nostalgico degli anni 80. Il gioco funziona molto bene e nella sua estrema semplicità è divertente così come lo ricordavo da piccola. Un po’troppo alto il volume! Comunque consigliato
