The Dark Tower is a 1981 electronic board game by Milton Bradley. The object of the game is to collect several keys to the tower and defeat the evil within.
The game consits of a battery-powered center unit, two cardboard peices and several plastic figures. To play, the board is placed around the large center unit (the "Dark Tower") and players take turns moving about the board. Most moves involve interacting with the tower in some manner.
The game came out during the height of the pencil and paper role playing game craze in the early 1980s. It is no longer published, though some units can be purchased via online auction sites such as eBay.
