This
game is a real beauty. Similar to vintage games like Clue
or even Guess Who, This is a cool where is the bad guy game.
The object is to track sounds, and read clues from an
electronic game module. When the crook is caught he sometimes
get's away. When this happen you here a tone like "na,
na, na, na naaa na.." There are also sounds of breaking
glass, sirens, and the crook running or walking. This is how
you track him. Counting steps.
My kids liked this game despite big tickets like Game Boy
and Playstation being in the house. It is a good clean family
board game with a touch of electronics added. It is amazing
what was high-tech in 1979. It is amazing to seewhere electronics
has taken us since this game.
Re-live the fun of a 1979 issued electronic game! If you
like or had Dark Tower, you probably had this. They were from
the same era. I have this one myself.
If you want this game Let me know. I will add you to a list
in case I come accross another. It is rather inexpensive.
$30 on average (2002 Market price). Other mentions from this
era? Darktower (worth a review someday) Touchdown Electronic
football, and Mattel Baseball hand-held games.They were other
popular hand held games from the 1970's.
