History

Mike Jones hunts through islands with a yo-yo in StarTropics, Nintendo's late adventure, a cousin to Zelda with its own story. Dr. Jones is the missing uncle, a packed letter famously needed water to reveal a code, and the voyage is the 1990 NES game.

C-Island and the nearby seas hold the chapters. The yo-yo gives way to a stronger weapon later.

Nintendo hid that hint off the cartridge on purpose. The setting is not Hyrule, even where overhead dungeons feel familiar.
