Description
A plastic red electronic toy. It had a keypad and you could - ahem - match wits with the microprocessor in a game of Tic Tac Toe. There were other games you could play as well but describing them would be too lengthy.

I REMEMBER SANTA GOT ME ONE WHEN I WAS ABOUT 6 YEARS OLD. I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO MINE, BUT I LOVED IT!
I loved my Merlin! I got it for Christmas in the late 70's and played it for hours. There was Tic Tac Toe but also a "snake" type game and others. I got another hand held electronic game the following year but I can't remember it's name. It had "more advanced" features. lol
I have one with the original instructions if anybody is interested. ybolin@triad.rr.com
