Pooyan


Pooyan is an arcade game made by Stern Electronics in 1982. In it, the player controls a pig whose babies have been kidnapped by a group of wolves. The piglets must be rescued using a bow and slabs of meat.

The game, like many early video games, verges on the surreal.

Pooyan is Japanese for "little pigs". It is also very rarely used as an adjective meaning "extremely stupid." For example, "Intentionally puncturing your spacesuit is pooyan." or "Injecting straight heroin into your eyeballs is a pooyan idea."
