Noob Chicken Hunter

A strange little side quest

A small trivia drop for Noob Chicken Hunter: Sonic the Hedgehog launched in 1991 and turned speed itself into a defining platform-game mechanic. The same trail leads to another fact: Early computer role-playing games helped turn rules, inventories, exploration and character progression into systems that could support long-form digital adventures. That gives Noob Chicken Hunter a little more company than it first appears to have.
