A strange little side quest
Between one round of 99 Nights In The Forest and the next, this is worth knowing: Tomatoes helped turn Naples' flatbreads into the food we recognize as pizza, which had become an important food for poorer Neapolitans by the 18th century. And then there is this: Early computer role-playing games helped turn rules, inventories, exploration and character progression into systems that could support long-form digital adventures. That is the kind of background detail that makes another attempt at 99 Nights In The Forest feel a bit more connected to the history of play.
