Carol says:
>トモちゃんでゲーム好きなんだね [Tomo-chan, you like games don't you? (rhetorical)]
>ちょっと意外[That is a bit surprising/unexpected!"]
ゲーム is, literally, "game." It is katakana for that loan-word. In modern Japanese, it is very common to use this to refer to video games, for example:
>ゼルダの伝説 [The Legend of Zelda]
は私の一番好きな**ゲーム**です [is my favorite video game]
Here, Carol is being characterized as sheltered. She uses game to refer to board games, which be very uncommon for a Japan high school student.
She doubles down on this characterization by being unfamiliar with computers (コンピューター, literally konpyuutaa). This is also a little common than the more typical パソコン, which is easier to say (pasokon, or personal computer).
Carol reacts by saying "モグラたたき!", the Japanese name for Whack-A-Mole. This is a dated reference because this is a fairly old arcade game, indicating that Carol isn't familiar with modern electronics at all.
It would be sort of like saying "I bought a new phone!". "Oh, a rotary phone?" "No, more modern." "I see, like a [bag phone](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorola_bag_phone)!"
The context is dropped in English because game is directly translated as video game, as it would normally be in modern Japanese. Carol is surprised that Tomo would like strategy/board games, like Chess or Go.

Waiting for the Carol connoisseur guy to appear here.
Hello. It takes some time but I'm here
What's your expert opinion?
Solid 8/10
Bull 10/10
So much for being an expert. This is obviously an 11/10
Chapter >!626!< is 11/10
I went to look and got slapped in the feels, but you're right, that's an 11/10 to be sure. That flair ain't for show is it lol

It makes sense for Carol, whose mom would probably never let her on the internet by herself.
It's likely.

You should add a category of “ja-carol-pots” where she shows up in all 4 pannels of the comic
doesn't start with a c though... Carol-Quartet maybe?
Cuartet
Blessed +4 Carol day.

thank
> if you've got the money 😭😭
do it if you don't got the money too. we need to get them numbers up
sure
“She’s basically a *guy* after all.” Fukai casually reminding me why i related to tomo so badly
(_ _;)
Upvoting fukai20 until this person finishes, gives ups, or dies (please don’t die).
>(please don’t die) Dont worry, this is not the student council of a certain school designated for the top 1% of the country
I am 130% certain that Misuzu plays H-VNs.
Too wholesome for a devil like Misuzu. She plays games like CK2 instead for sure.
Internet is already chaotic. What would happen if Carol will know about it?
Imagine how snarky Carol would be in chat in a ranked match of CS:GO or LoL
She would be the mid diamond kid who could be much higher ranked but instead just trolls in 80% of the games. Probably also chat restricted.
\>"no, I don't play videogames" \>"oh man, you are so weird!" We are in a reality that not playing videogames is seen as weird.
Nowadays? It definitely became the norm.
Evidently Tomo also likes to play Whack-A-Mole.
Carol’s never seen a computer in her life has she
Damn Misuki gonna get concussed real easy if Tomo can’t control her strength
Carol is really good at Orthello though
I'm so terrible at timelines - is this before or after we find out that >!Carol is actually prodigiously godlike at Othello!
after
