SINCE 1978

VERIFIED FIELD NOTE · CHECKED AUG. 27, 2026

Is Simon
still made?

YES — MADE TODAY

Confirmed through Hasbro’s current product page and instructions for item E9383.

The short history

Simon arrived in 1978 as a circular electronic game with four colored panels. It turned a simple challenge—repeat an increasingly long light-and-sound sequence—into a living-room test of concentration.

What survived

Four colored lights still build a sequence that players must watch, remember and repeat.

What changed

The current unit is more compact, and its electronics, scoring, modes and battery requirements differ from the large 1978 tabletop version.

Current versions

Hasbro’s current handheld Simon keeps the four-color sequence game and adds contemporary electronics, solo play and scoring in a more compact housing.
