On the Subject of Simon Stages

“We have Simon’s Stages on this bomb.”

• The module shows a colour indicator and ten flashing lights with corresponding buttons.
• If the module also has a 2 digit display on the top left, you are looking at the wrong module.
• The light will flash in of ten colours (see the table below). An initial will confirm the colour for both the light and the colour indicator.
• There are 5 stages. On each stage, a 3–5 note sequence will flash and a colour will be displayed on the indicator. Each stage will also show the flashing colours and their indicators of previous stages.
• Submit the correct sequence of each stage for each stage (in order).
• A strong press will indicate the end of the input for that given sequence.
• If an error has been made upon completing the entire sequence, a strike will occur. The module will redisplay the entire sequence for this stage until all inputs are correct for this stage.
• Upon 5 completed stages, the module will disarm.
