Waddingtons 2001 The Game Machine

Summary

The Game Machine from the British company Waddingtons House of Games, is a handheld who acts as a calculator but also offers four fixed games for playing. The device has a single seven-segment display of 13 elements, as well as colorful stencils, which are placed over the display at the individual games. Ten buttons are used for the control, for whose easier assignment there are also templates.

Game one, in which the player is to hit as many goals as possible with 30 shots, is called “shooting gallery”. The classic card game “Black Jack” is game number two. In the third game “Code Hunter”, the player must guess a four-digit code. The last game “Grand Prix” is a racing game in which the player has to avoid obstacles. The goal of all games is to beat the previous high score. Key 0 activates the computer that executes standard mathematical operations.
