A strange little side quest
Grombi trivia break for Pirate Bubbles: Donkey Kong arrived in 1981 with a character called Jumpman, who would later become one of gaming's most recognizable figures: Mario. The same trail leads to another fact: Women competed in Olympic archery as early as 1904, making it one of the early Olympic sports to include women. So a round of Pirate Bubbles is not just a quick distraction; it is a tiny stop on a much longer platform games timeline.
