Michael Brough

Michael Brough is an independent game developer. In addition to other work, Brough is known for making roguelikes influenced by the design of classic games such as Chess and Go, which feature small, square boards rather than sprawling labyrinths, and often force players into zugzwang ("the compulsion to move") rather than allowing a 'wait' action. These are affectionately referred to by some as 'Broughlikes'.
