Milton Bradley’s “Dark Tower” on Sale in 1981

Released in 1981, Milton Bradley’s Dark Tower boardgame is still one of those marvels that collectors love to chase down and play. The electronic tower is one of the cooler game components I’ve ever seen, and as we see in this 1981 newspaper ad the game was a pricey one when it was new. $39.99 on sale may not sound like a lot, but when we adjust for inflation that’s a $105 sale price in today’s dollars. Wow. No wonder I only had one friend who owned this game when I was a kid.
