GROMBI FACT DROPREAL-WORLD TRIVIA
A strange little side quest
The rules may be simple on screen, but the backstory around Hand Me the Goods is anything but tiny. The Oregon Trail eventually appeared across generations of computer hardware and sold tens of millions of copies, making it one of the most enduring educational games. A second detail makes the picture even better: Spacewar! appeared on MIT's PDP-1 in 1962 and became one of the earliest influential computer games shared among programmers. That history is one reason familiar mechanics can still feel new when they are recombined well.
What you are getting into
Hand Me The Goods takes the concept of reach out and grab and turns it into a crazy version of a sadistic game show. In this dangerous game you can become very rich quick, but also you can lose your hands. The risks are seriously high but if you are brave and careful, you are good at learning the patterns of the laser, you can be a good candidate to get the huge cash prize. Luckily, the laser goes up and down in a certain pattern, and its movements are not randomized, but the more money you collect and the further you advance, the more complicated the patterns become, and each time you reach out the tension rises. So get your chance in this game to take all the money you can get but take good care of putting your hand at great risk by doing so!
