Parkiss

A strange little side quest

Grombi trivia break for Parkiss: During much of the 19th century in the United States, visibly painted cosmetics became socially unacceptable even though beauty practices never disappeared. There is another connection worth keeping in the same mental pocket: Pong was field-tested in California bars in 1972 and helped launch the modern arcade-game era. So a round of Parkiss is not just a quick distraction; it is a tiny stop on a much longer fashion and style timeline.
