What is it:

This is the game classic game of simon.  Remember that game with the blinking lights and the sounds where you had to remember the order?  Well, this is that game, but with sound and blinking X's.  Each round, one more item will be added to the pattern, which you have to type in every round.  If you make a mistake, you lose.  You can win, but you have to get an insane amount of them right.  I severly doubt anyone will be able to do it without a piece of paper or a photographic memory handy.

How to play:

The controls a very simple.  Use the arrows to choose which area to pick.  Clear quits out of the game prematurly, as does randomly pressing the arrow keys.  To hear the sound, either, but a 2.5 mm <-> 3.5 mm converter (probably the best idea), or plug in you you link cable the your calculator, and touch the other end to the top of either a headphone cable, or one of those cheesy computer speaker cables.  (With the headphones or speakers still attached to the cable in either case.)

Why is it:

Hmm...thats a toughy, mainly because I was bored one day and figured that the 83 needs more small cheesy 700 bytes games (now 650 bytes due to Joe W.!) that are good for a quick brake during math.  So, I thought of a few things, and, being the lazy person that I am, choose the easiest, simon.
