A strange little side quest
Even a quick game like Icebound Secrets 2: Soul Hunter sits on top of decades — and sometimes centuries — of ideas. The name Tetris combines a reference to four-square pieces with Pajitnov's interest in tennis. That is only half the story. Early computer role-playing games helped turn rules, inventories, exploration and character progression into systems that could support long-form digital adventures. That gives Icebound Secrets 2: Soul Hunter a little more company than it first appears to have.
