I’d give laser pointers to Neanderthals. Even if they did figure out some useful application for them (maybe hunting?) they’d run out of batteries eventually.

    A Nintendo Switch running Animal Crossing. Assume it has some kind of perpetual battery, and they can figure out how to operate it/play the game, and read our modern English.

    I’m thinking they figure modern civilisation is about (or back to) fishing and farming… and that animals are intelligent. Like validating TF outta the Egyptian pantheon. You’re a human but you have a dog for a neighbor, here’s a koala, a gorilla, an eagle… and they all talk and wear clothes.

    (Of course, if we wanna blow their minds with a game AND we can assume they can play it, why not just go straight to Cyberpunk?)
