A strange little side quest
Between one round of Sweet Supermarket Simulator and the next, this is worth knowing: M.U.L.E. arrived in 1983 with multiplayer competition built around gathering resources and keeping a colony alive, an early example of resource-driven strategy play. That is only half the story. Midway's Gun Fight from 1975 was the first arcade video game to use a microprocessor. So a round of Sweet Supermarket Simulator is not just a quick distraction; it is a tiny stop on a much longer simulation games timeline.
