Kroz

Long before Apogee became the shareware giant it was known as in its later years, it was just a simple one-man operation, run by Scott Miller. He wrote a few games before, but the Kroz series were the first games to use the Apogee name, even if they hadn’t started using their shareware model yet. Scott was inspired by Zork (the inspiration was made fairly clear by the title) and Rouge. He disliked how random Rogue was, so he created his own game, using pre-made level layouts and using a more arcade-like style of gameplay
