	Welcome to Just Adventure +
		Michael Toy and Glenn Wichman, students in Santa Cruz, California, began experimenting with this new library and attempted to write a new pseudo-graphical adventure game.
		Michael and Glenn decided that the program should build the dungeon from scratch every time the game started, making each game different and unpredictable.

	The Essential 50 Part 12 -- Rogue from 1UP.com
		According to Rogue co-creator Glenn Wichman, the impetus that drove him (and his friends Ken Arnold and Michael Toy) to program the game in the first place was provided by Willie Crowther's early text-based game, Adventure (aka ADVENT or Colossal Cave), the very game which inspired Warren Robinett's Atari title by the same name.
		Wichman and his collaborators enjoyed unraveling the textual mysteries of Adventure, but found themselves frustrated by its limited nature.
		The game's maze of twisty passages (all alike) was the same every time, and the primitive text parser was frequently arbitrary and tended toward the frustrating.

	First Procedurally Generated RPG/Adventure Game - GameInnovation
		One of the ideals of Rogue's original developers (Michael Toy and Glenn Wichman) had been to develop a game in which even the creators could be surprised.
		At the time, most existing adventure games had a fixed plot and game world that never changed, meaning the game became predictable after the first play through - Toy and Wichman used a pseudo-random number generator to make it so that the game's levels would be different each time you played it.
		In 1980, a release of BSD Unix included a binary version of Rogue, which meant it suddenly became freely available across university computers world-wide.

	Rogue
		In 1980, Glenn R. Wichman tells us, "a student named Ken Arnold […] put together a library of routines which allowed programs to do 'cursor addressing', which means the programs could put a character at a specific location on the computer screen.
		Michael Toy and Glenn Wichman, both Adventure players, decided this package could be used for a graphical adventure.
		To make it possible that even they themselves could still be surprised by their game, they let it randomly create a dungeon every time it was played.
