A strange little side quest
Even a quick game like Letter Writers sits on top of decades — and sometimes centuries — of ideas. Women competed in Olympic archery as early as 1904, making it one of the early Olympic sports to include women. A second detail makes the picture even better: Atari's Gran Trak 10 from 1974 is recognized as the first arcade racing video game. So a round of Letter Writers is not just a quick distraction; it is a tiny stop on a much longer archery timeline.
