Wizardry co-creator Andrew Greenberg dead at 67

Wizardry was a foundational game of my pre-teens.

At first I hated the no mapping aspect, but then my mom brought in
some graph paper and the game became a key bonding element between us.

I remember racing home from school to find out what mom had uncovered that day.
Joyfully exclaiming I finally had enough points to distribute to make a samurai!
Huddling together with her as we took our first team down to face Wernda!
Reading about the Bishop hack in some software/gaming magazine.

Thanks for being the bad guy Werdna! My life is so much better because of you.
