A strange little side quest
Here is a rabbit hole for the next loading screen in Reach 10: Reader Rabbit's 1986 arrival was part of a major expansion of educational computer software before the CD-ROM boom of the 1990s. The broader history adds one more wrinkle. Nintendo's Donkey Kong arrived in 1981 and introduced the character first known as Jumpman, who later became Mario. So a round of Reach 10 is not just a quick distraction; it is a tiny stop on a much longer learning games timeline.
