A strange little side quest
There is a neat bit of history hiding behind the kind of play you find in Worldgence. Boxing entered the modern Olympic Games in 1904 at St. Louis. And then there is this: 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. That history is one reason familiar mechanics can still feel new when they are recombined well.
