I had this game as a kid. Does anybody remember it? The main feature was a large plastic tower about 10 inches tall that sat in the middle of the board. It took two "D" batteries. had a keypad with 12-15 buttons near the base. The top two-thirds of the tower had a dark window on the front (above the keypad). As you moved your piece on the board, you would press the appropriate key on the tower. There was a drum inside the tower that would turn and light up, showing you the results of your move.

The board was divided into four kingdoms. Each player started at their home kingdom's citadel and the goal was to retrieve a bronze, silver, and gold key, one from each of the other regions. As you moved around the board, you had to hire soldiers and buy food to feed them (all of which you kept track of on a cardboard tablet with hole and pegs). Once you had all the keys, you returned to your kingdom and assaulted the Dark Tower. This was a great game, but unfortunately I think my mom sold it years ago. Does anyone know who made it? I've searched on the web but with no luck :(

There ye go!
I remember this game, and also Dungeon! I still have that board game!!!
