A strange little side quest
A little context makes Jumping Snowman more fun to place on the gaming map. Voyager 1 entered interstellar space in 2012, and Voyager 2 followed in 2018. There is another connection worth keeping in the same mental pocket: Early computer role-playing games helped turn rules, inventories, exploration and character progression into systems that could support long-form digital adventures. That gives Jumping Snowman a little more company than it first appears to have.
