A 2017 update also added Super Power-Ups, stronger versions of the power-ups that can be activated by combining multiple copies of a power-up, and also come with additional, punishing penalties if players try to continue while using Super Power-Ups.

It is the first and only known smartphone adaptation of the children's activity "Simon Says", designed to play more like an endless runner like ''VideoGame/TempleRun''.
The game's official website can be visited [[http://www.simonsaysmobile.com here]].
!!Simon Says Mobile contains the following tropes:
*BribingYourWayToVictory: Downplayed. While this game has the trappings of a greedy free-to-play game, including a bank where you can buy more in-game currency with real money, it tries to offer you ways to earn more items by playing frequently and earning tickets that you can trade in for booster cards that just award more stuff that can help you. Plus, while there may be some premium goodies that you can buy once, every "buy" button doesn't come without a warning for kids to ask their parents for permission before pressing them.
*CharacterLevel / ExperiencePoints: Following correct Simon commands will grant you experience that builds up your profile level. The higher your level, the more game features you unlock.
*ColorCodedForYourConvenience: Booster card rarities are indicated by color. Green means common, blue means semi-rare, red means rare, purple means epic and gold means legendary.
*CompetitiveMultiplayer: This game features a hot potato multiplayer mode in which players take turns surviving a round of commands, with each player being eliminated whenever they make a fatal mistake until one player is left to become the winner. In 2018, three head-to-head modes were added that provide new ways to play "Simon Says": Quick Draw (in which two players score points based on whoever obeyed a Simon command first), Endurance (in which players keep obeying Simon commands until someone makes three mistakes) and Frenzy (in which players race to obey Simon commands at a faster rate to vie for control of a time-limited tug-of-war battle).
*ContinuingIsPainful: The price of continuing will double for each fatal mistake you make. If the price of continuing reaches an unaffordable level, though, the game doesn't offer you the choice of paying real money to get enough Super Credits to keep going and [[GameOver ends your session outright]].
*DifficultyByAcceleration: The game goes faster as you survive Simon's commands longer.
*EndlessGame
*FailureIsTheOnlyOption: The game continues until you make a mistake, either by missing a command from Simon or following one that didn't come from him.
*{{Microtransactions}}: You can buy more currency with real money. You can also buy one-time premium features, namely an ad-free experience, a custom playable background with increased Super Credit farming or double experience. There's also a starter pack you can buy as well.
*NoExportForYou: This game is only available in countries where English is a spoken language.
*PlayEveryDay: After your player profile reaches level 3, you can tackle Simon's Daily Orders, three daily missions that allow you to earn individually revealed booster cards from the lower three rarity tiers.
*PowerUp: There are four kinds of power-ups that you can use:
**A Quick Shield that protects you from one mistake within a limited period of time.
**A Double Points power-up that doubles your score.
**A Time Freeze power-up that causes time to slow down for random valid Simon commands in one session, giving you more time to follow them.
**A Golden Touch power-up that always nets you a few Credits for every valid Simon command you follow.
