A strange little side quest
There is a neat bit of history hiding behind the kind of play you find in Duck. Early computer role-playing games helped turn rules, inventories, exploration and character progression into systems that could support long-form digital adventures. The surprising part is how quickly the next milestone followed. Midway's Gun Fight from 1975 was the first arcade video game to use a microprocessor. That is the kind of background detail that makes another attempt at Duck feel a bit more connected to the history of play.
