Unisonic 21
Summary
In the 1970s and 1980s, Unisonic released several calculators, each with a different electronic game. The Unisonic 21 plays blackjack: players try to reach as close as possible to 21 points with two or more cards without exceeding that total. As in a casino, the opponent is the dealer, represented here by the computer. Its twelve-digit VFD display shows both the dealer’s and the player’s cards. The calculator supports the four basic arithmetic operations and has 25 buttons.
The following model D-3 from 1977 is advertised under the name Unisonic 21 With Jimmy the Greek. Jimmy the Greek is a well-known sports presenter and bookmaker in Las Vegas at this time.
