Comments: Consumer attention is drawn by the colorful TV graphics and illuminated header graphics featuring product transparencies. Up to five individuals may play the game simultaneously due to accessible, yet secure, user controls. Full-screen displays allow the action to be viewed by bystanders. High-fidelity stereo sound amplification makes the display virtually impossible to ignore.
