A strange little side quest
Before the next round of Alien Jump, here is a piece of the bigger picture. Humans did not see the Moon's far side until a Soviet spacecraft flew past it in 1959. And the history keeps stacking up: By 1987, fantasy role-playing had become a major computer-game direction, with Zelda, licensed Dungeons & Dragons games and other story-led adventures expanding the form. So a round of Alien Jump is not just a quick distraction; it is a tiny stop on a much longer space timeline.
