Matt Chat 262: Robert Woodhead on Wizardry and the Apple II

Robert Woodhead, co-designer of the Wizardry series, returns for one last segment to talk about the later days of his time at Sir-Tech. We also talk about his efforts at copy protection, the Mac, hacking the Apple II, and why he didn’t like the 1541 (Commodore’s disk drive). We wrap up with a discussion of David W. Bradley and Robert’s thoughts on making a new Wizardry game.
