GROMBI FACT DROPREAL-WORLD TRIVIA
A strange little side quest
If Long Live the King! sends you down a curiosity rabbit hole, start here. 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: Computer Space reached arcades in 1971 and became one of the earliest commercial electronic arcade games, even though its controls proved demanding for many players. Grombi files that under: small game, surprisingly large backstory.

What you are getting into
In the new game "Long Live the King!", You will be transported in the time of the great French Revolution. At that difficult time, the bourgeoisie succeeded in punishing thousands of opponents of the revolution with death. Aristocrats and representatives of churches and clergy also died. Now power and money can take on another caste of the rich. When the top of France shared power and finances, ordinary people received neither new rights nor a better life. They rebelled and decided to free the king. But to do so quietly and without witnesses.
