Growing up in the early 80's meant that any toy or game with electronics was awesome! The handheld Mattel Football Game was a staple. I spent hours with my 2-XL. And Parker Brother's Merlin came in the car with us on every family trip. But by far my favorite was the Milton Bradley's "Dark Tower." My father, grandfather and I would set up the board, make sure we had an extra pack of D batteries, and fight brigands and dragons all night long. Since I no longer have my copy, I have been tempted to bid hundreds of dollars for one on ebay, but then I found this flash version to bring me down memory lane. (Warning: if you did not grow up in the 80's or have never played this game before, playing the flash version may make you doubt my taste in all things fun. But if you remember, it is totally worth checking it out!) Enjoy!
