Games in this series are not to be confused with "roguelikes" as the Dunjonquest maps were not random (although some games like Sorcerer of Siva might place the character in a random starting spot in higher difficulty settings). Additionally, the Temple of Apshai and Hellfire Warrior games and related expansions for each placed significant importance on the uniqueness of each room the player entered through use of printed room descriptions. The Dunjonquest games were ported across a wide variety of late 1970s and early 1980s home computers.
