I’m very familiar with Bullfrog. Loved a lot of their games.
I hate the trend of gaming journalists using “-like” to describe genres of games

How do you feel about Doom-likes from 30 years ago?

We call them first-person shooters now. And I think they were usually called Doom-clones. But it makes sense that they’d use a word like that when a word for the genre hadn’t really been codified by that point.

“Roguelike.” <- 44 years on and we still don’t have a real name for this genre.
