14 <p>Super-Rogue came into being around 1982, when some employees at AT&amp;T Bell Labs began modifying a copy of the <a href="rogue3.html">Rogue 3.6</a> source code. Robert D. Kindelberger led the effort to expand Rogue into a new game. Super-Rogue included new monsters for all the lowercase letters, and deepened the dungeon to 35 levels. The final version, numbered 9.0, was completed in July 1984.</p>
