I got into pins with Cyclone and a large part of that was the instructional callouts. "Ride the ferris wheel!" etc. That was when it clicked for me that there were rules and an order to the seeming chaos.

That kind of explicit callout has been all but abandoned in modern pins. It's to the pins' and potential new players' detriment imo.
