Tiger Electronics' Brain Warp and Brain Shift games: instead of tones, the game unit issues a recorded voice that calls out colors and numbers in Game 4 - Memory Match. Brain Shift has two memory games, Game 2 ( Memory Shift) and Game 3 ( Who Shift's It?), that call out colors.

The serie of illuminated keys is randomly generated, so you can replay as many times as you wish because every time you play a new game, the game will be different! In the 1960s, German refugee and former World War II Army intelligence officer Ralph Baer was a military engineering contractor who decided to moonlight as a video games pioneer. Baer visualized a system that could be connected to a television to play games on the screen. In 1971, Baer and his employer, Sanders Associates, filed for and later received the first-ever video game patent. The system would become the Magnavox Odyssey, which went on sale in 1972. In Season 6 of Silicon Valley, Nelson "Big Head" Bighetti spends days playing Simon during working hours at the Business Incubator, and unwittingly internalizes Jian-Yang's SSH key by singing the key's characters along with the lit colors in the game.

In 2011, Hasbro introduced Simon Flash. In this version, the game is played with four cube-shaped electronic modules that the player must move around depending on the game mode. [6]

In late 2020, the popular game Among Us featured a mini-game loosely based on the design of Simon. [18] However, most players mistakenly referred to it as "Simon Says." The principle of the game is simple: the player have to memorize the series of illuminated keys and reproduce it. The purpose of the game is to reproduce the longest series of colors / sounds randomly generated by the Simon.
