Anleitung Zusammenfassung
Be creative as you fill in the blank words and you’ll discover how screamingly funny, shocking, silly, crazy, or just plain dumb these stories turn out, once you complete each one of them! Before starting, please read this manual thoroughly, paying special attention to safety, care, and battery information. Remember, keep this manual for reference. 2 The legendary King Arthur brandished a magic sword, Excalibur, from which we take our company name. With this unique weapon in his hands, he could not be vanquished. Although Excalibur Electronics can’t claim the magical secrets of Merlin, King Arthur’s court wizard, sometimes our patented technology may make it seem as if we could. MadLibs is another unmatched innovation of Excalibur Electronics. We make you think. 3 Battery Information Your MadLibs Handheld Game requires two AAA batteries, not included.
