As a collector of board games, I wanted to ask folks if Electronic Detective is any good, also is Maniac as fun as it looks? Please let me know in the comments.
I had Electronic Detective and LOVED it. It was like a solitaire version of Clue with many more combinations. You interviewed 20 or more suspects in a crime from 4-5 predefined questions for each suspect. Answers changed and sometimes suspects lied. It came with a vinyl of Don Adams explaining how the game works.
I think I had Wizard. The buttons look familiar, but I don’t remember that screen. Basically it (or a very similar looking toy) was a straight up Simon clone. Maniac looked cool, but that was probably just the “rad” name and lettering working their marketing magic on my 10 year old self.

Mattel Football is a legend. That is all.
