A strange little side quest
A small trivia drop for Golf Day: By 1987, fantasy role-playing had become a major computer-game direction, with Zelda, licensed Dungeons & Dragons games and other story-led adventures expanding the form. Another piece of context lands nicely beside it: Basketball became an Olympic medal sport in 1936, while women’s basketball joined the Olympic programme in 1976. So a round of Golf Day is not just a quick distraction; it is a tiny stop on a much longer role-playing games timeline.
