A strange little side quest
The rules may be simple on screen, but the backstory around Forgotten Hill: Puppeteer is anything but tiny. Early computer role-playing games helped turn rules, inventories, exploration and character progression into systems that could support long-form digital adventures. The same trail leads to another fact: Pong was field-tested in California bars in 1972 and helped launch the modern arcade-game era. Grombi files that under: small game, surprisingly large backstory.
