Get in Shape, Girl! from Hasbro (1985)
In the afterglow of the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, Hasbro released Get in Shape, Girl!, a line of fitness-in-a-box sets aimed at young girls ages five and up.
The Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game -- created by Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson -- was first published in 1974.
Games give you a chance to excel, and if you’re playing in good company you don’t even mind if you lose because you had the enjoyment of the company during the course of the game."
— Gary Gygax
