A strange little side quest
Battle Royale Simulator may feel immediate, but the ideas around strategy games have been evolving for a very long time. The word 'checkmate' is linked to the Persian expression 'shah mat', used when the king was trapped. And then there is this: Gun Fight reached arcades in 1975 and became the first arcade video game to use a microprocessor. That is the kind of background detail that makes another attempt at Battle Royale Simulator feel a bit more connected to the history of play.
