A strange little side quest
Zoom out from Subsist Baddies for a moment and the timeline gets surprisingly deep. Donkey Kong arrived in 1981 with a character called Jumpman, who would later become one of gaming's most recognizable figures: Mario.

That history is one reason familiar mechanics can still feel new when they are recombined well.
