A not very well known old series of commercial sci-fi roguelikes.

Description

It is Doomsday 2000 ported to home computers, with added graphics and sounds. It was not a commercial success; out of three parts of Doomsday 2000 only two (Mission: Thunderbolt and Mission: Firestorm) were ported to Macintosh, and only one to Windows PC. It is probably still one of the best SF roguelikes available.
