A strange little side quest
The rules may be simple on screen, but the backstory around Scary Chicken Feet Escape is anything but tiny. 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. It also connects to a different milestone: Pong was field-tested in California bars in 1972 and helped launch the modern arcade-game era. That is the kind of background detail that makes another attempt at Scary Chicken Feet Escape feel a bit more connected to the history of play.
