Keyboard Creations! , released in 1981, is an innovative game that lets players interact with their console like never before. Players can type in a main message that continually scrolls across the screen, set up an "alarm" message to pop up at regular intervals, and even set a digital clock to keep track of time.
The gameplay options are diverse and varied. For example, Movie Madness! involves players taking turns naming movies and trying to fill in as many associated characters as possible within a set time limit. Another game, Sportscaster! , plays similarly but focuses on sports teams instead. Other games include Identograms , where one player tries to identify a subject based on clues given by the other player; Source Word , where players take turns coming up with as many word variations as possible using only the letters of a source word; and Tell Tale! , a game of sentence completion.
The games continue with Nincompoop , where players take turns entering words with increasing length, with a twist: when a certain vowel is used, the player types "Nincompoop" instead. Then there's Chain Letters , a word-finding game that requires players to come up with words that fit into a specific category, starting with the last letter of the previous word.
A math-based challenge awaits in Quiz Wiz , where one player sets up math problems for the other player to solve within a time limit. The goal is to arrive at the answer before it appears on the screen.
