A strange little side quest
The mechanics around Bird Tile Trio have roots that stretch far beyond modern browsers. The first crossword puzzle book appeared in 1924 in a cautious initial printing of 3,600 copies, complete with a free pencil. And then there is this: Space Invaders, released in 1978, helped push video games into mainstream popular culture. That gives Bird Tile Trio a little more company than it first appears to have.
