Simon Electronic Memory Game, Handheld Light and Sound Game, Ages 8 and Up

Great game for the whole family or just to keep the kids occupied if you are busy, it's a game of memory, drives you insane lol. The kids love it…

A classic game so much fun for all ages

A great replica of the original game, which I'm old enough to remember, although a shame it doesn't have all the vintage game options. Should be good fun when family come round. Service was fabulous and this was the best price I could find. Great.

The original Simon is so much fun when you have 2 or more children to share

Good old fashioned miniaturised family fun!! 😁😁 1st released in 1978, this iconic super simple memory game for 1 to four players was as a hit back then. With a couple of modes, to switch between, This provided hours of competitive family fun for millions worldwide. REALLY nice post Xmas dinner bonding game.loved it then & I love it now!! 😁

Excellent memory game for children. Helps to develop their memory skills whilst enjoying themselves and a game that adults can enjoy and play along with

Good for a gift and also good for people with dementia trying to remember the colours and sound

This version of Simon is similar to the original, which I had as a child. Sadly, after years of regular use, it finally stopped working. The new model is a bit smaller and much thinner, but is a good size to use and is also reasonably portable. It only has one game and no levels. The old one had a choice of levels and had an individual and a competitive game. This version just lets you continue with the sequence as long as you can. This is fine for what I wanted- I bought it to keep my brain active. It would have been nice to have the choice of levels, though- I used to enjoy completing a sequence, but now you never complete, it just ends when you make a mistake, so it's based on failure rather than success. I would also have enjoyed the competitive game, as I used to play this on my own, as well as with my family - when a mistake was made, that colour was out and you could continue with the others until one colour was left. It's worth the price I paid, but, as it's been simplified, it's not worth the RRP. It's supposed to tell you your longest sequence, but it just repeats it so rapidly you can't count how many you got. The green light is supposed to give you your score, but it seems to flash a random number of times. The other problem with mine is that, if I have the sound on ( which I don't usually, so I can play it when my husband is in the room without disturbing him), the blue sound makes a strange vibrating noise, which is annoying. Still a very good game, but it has gone backwards from the '70's, rather than having improved with modern technology.
