A strange little side quest
The fun part of looking behind Easy Cruise is seeing how many older ideas are still alive in modern play. Women competed in Olympic archery as early as 1904, making it one of the early Olympic sports to include women. A second detail makes the picture even better: Atari's Gran Trak 10 from 1974 is recognized as the first arcade racing video game, decades before modern 3D racers. So a round of Easy Cruise is not just a quick distraction; it is a tiny stop on a much longer archery timeline.
