Simon is a game of “Follow the Leader”. Ths computer comes up with a sequence of colors and tones you must replicate using the buttons on the window. Select “Start” from the “Game” menu to begin the game.
The computer starts with one tone and color and, upon completing the sequence, adds another tone and color to the string. If you happen to lose your memory and miss one, you score will be displayed with the option to start over or put the game away. Your score is the the length of the string of colors and tones, not how many you got right.
You may use the keyboard, although a mouse is recommended. The keys to use are, with Num Lock set, 7 for Red, 9 for Blue, 1 for Green, 3 for Yellow and 5 for Purple. The keys use the pattern of the buttons.
This game was written by Mark Gamber using the Windows SDK and Microsoft C 6.00A.

Another thing that really makes Simon enjoyable for me is how it manages to stay interesting even after playing it multiple times. Many games feel repetitive after a while, but here, the experience still feels fresh because of the small details and different ways you can approach the gameplay. As you continue playing, you naturally start improving and understanding the mechanics better, which makes everything feel more rewarding. I also appreciate the balance the game maintains—it’s not too difficult, but it’s not too easy either. You can play it casually for a short break or spend longer sessions without getting bored. That flexibility is one of the biggest reasons why I keep coming back to Simon. Overall, it’s the kind of game that doesn’t just entertain you for a moment, but actually gives you a consistently enjoyable experience every time you play.
