A strange little side quest
Put Sunny Tropic Battle Royale next to the history of strategy games and a few unexpected connections appear. Chess changed dramatically in Europe during the 15th and 16th centuries when the queen became the board's most powerful piece. It also connects to a different milestone: Gun Fight reached arcades in 1975 and became the first arcade video game to use a microprocessor. So a round of Sunny Tropic Battle Royale is not just a quick distraction; it is a tiny stop on a much longer strategy games timeline.
