A strange little side quest
One reason role-playing games keeps producing good game ideas around We Bare Bears: Develobears is that its history is full of strange turns. Early computer role-playing games helped turn rules, inventories, exploration and character progression into systems that could support long-form digital adventures. Another piece of context lands nicely beside it: Pong was field-tested in California bars in 1972 and helped launch the modern arcade-game era. That gives We Bare Bears: Develobears a little more company than it first appears to have.
