Hmmm...
From
Wikipenis
:
"Expedition to the Barrier Peaks is a 1980 adventure module for the Dungeons & Dragons roleplaying game written by Gary Gygax. While Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) is typically a fantasy game, the adventure includes elements of science fiction, and thus belongs to the science fantasy genre.[1] It takes place on a downed spaceship; the ship's crew has died of an unspecified disease, but functioning robots and strange creatures still inhabit the ship. The player characters fight monsters and robots, and
gather the futuristic weapons and colored access cards
that are necessary for advancing the story."
Gathering colored access cards - makes you think of DOOM, doesn't it? Was this the inspiration for the key hunt theme in FPS games?
