@Bubbaist Yea, I know...and they WERE odd! even my parents thought so back then! SIX pen light batteries weren't cheap! way more than buying 2 regular NORMAL batteries! I remember my parents having the HARDEST time finding pen light batteries (and hearing aid/pen light batteries were basically the same thing!) Especially SIX since I think they only came in packs of 2 and four and maybe 8, which wasn't cheap. 6 batteries is a bit excessive!

@Mysterycat74, Merlin took 6 AA batteries, not "ODD, expensive hard-to-find hearing-aid type batteries". Back in the 70's, AA batteries were referred to as "pen light batteries".

I had one of these as a kid. I remember really enjoying it. Took 6 AAs, if memory serves me right, and ran for quite a while on them.

Back in the day when this came out, nothing included batteries. Many games were still wind-up devices.

I used my family's Merlin to play the tone from the "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" movie over and over. Didn't summon any aliens, but Merlin *was* loads of fun.

My sister wanted Merlin SO BAD! The girl down the street had it and we'd always just use it as a fake phone whenever we'd all play "house" or whatever. (The batteries were ALWAYS dead and it took very ODD, expensive hard-to-find hearing-aid type batteries!) When she FINALLY replaced the batteries and we actually played with it...I have to say it was the lamest most boring toy on the planet! Even for the early 80's! Tic Tac Toe? Gee...that's SECONDS of fun I could play on a piece of PAPER!

I had one of these when I was 8 in the late 70's. It was a lot of fun then. It wouldn't be to kids today.

You're supposed to TRY to play Blackjack 13. It never said it was actually possible.
