A strange little side quest
If Rhythm Capture 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. A second detail makes the picture even better: A major archery competition held at Finsbury in England in 1583 drew about 3,000 participants. So a round of Rhythm Capture is not just a quick distraction; it is a tiny stop on a much longer role-playing games timeline.
