Milton (game) to Simon, which is a wildly popular electronic game that was introduced in 1978, also by Milton Bradley. The object of Milton is to correctly recall and match up spoken phrases, as opposed to Simon's patterns of light and sound. Although the release of Milton may have been an attempt to cash in on Simon's popularity, the game did not meet with the same level of success. There are 7 red and 7 yellow buttons on Milton. When the game begins, Milton recites 7 correctly completed three-word phrases. Player 1 then presses any one of the top red phrase buttons
Gauntlet (1985 video game) accommodate up to four players, the control panel is wider than other standard uprights. Each player has a joystick and two buttons, one for "Fire" (ranged attack), and one for "Magic". The Magic button also starts the game. After "Gauntlet"s release, other games started using this design, so it was a popular conversion target for newer games after it had its run. Originally called "Dungeons", the game was conceived by Atari game designer Ed Logg. He claimed inspiration from his son's interest in the paper-based game "Dungeons & Dragons" and from his own interest in 1983's Atari 800 home computer
