An Arduino circuit design and program that simulates the game "Simon Says".
This Arduino project is similar to the electronic memory games made popular in the 1980s. The program creates a randomized sequence of progressively complex LED flashes. A player must memorize the pattern and input the correct sequence.
This version gives the player three chances. After entering an incorrect pattern three times, the game is over. The player can reset the game by moving the board to activate the tilt switch.
