I remember playing with Merlin frequently. Although it seemed pretty hard to figure out at times. But I think I liked it b/c it seemed so high tech at the time. High tech for a little kid anyway.

I remember my cousin had this, and I loved to play with it. Weren't there different cards that went ito it to change the game?

My sister had one when we were growing up, and about 5 years ago I found one at a yard sale, so I snapped it up for about $1. Still goes too!

I loved this game as a kid- the best part was his crazy commentary when u got it wrong- he'd even laugh in a silly robot voice."absurd!! Ha ha ha!"

I have owned this game since I was 11 years old back in 1979. I still have it and I still play it. I even have the 2003 reissue game. Awesome then, awesome now.

I had insomnia as a kid and this was my favorite game. I would pull my covers up over my head and play for hours and hours. I freakin' LOVE this game... wish I still had one.

I had a Merlin and would play the simon says game a lot on it. I can't actually remember any of the other games, but there were many. I really enjoyed this thing:)
