How to play Simon

The original: Simon by Milton Bradley (1978), now a Hasbro game. Ours is an independent remake, not affiliated with Hasbro.

Simon is the memory game with four colored panels that light up and beep in a sequence. Your job is to repeat the sequence back. Each round adds one more step — how long can you remember? Past about 10 steps it gets surprisingly hard.

About Simon

Simon shipped from Milton Bradley in 1978, designed by Ralph Baer (also the inventor of the Magnavox Odyssey, the first home console) and Howard Morrison. It was a Christmas blockbuster, lining shelves with its distinctive disc-shaped four-button design. The name comes from "Simon Says" — the playground game of mimicking commands.
