I recently completed one of my Apple II bucket list items and created a patch for Wizard's Crown which modifies the movement keys to align better with the numeric keypad.
The original keys were awkward to use, and chosen at a time when numeric keypads were not prevalent (1985). There were alternative key sequences that appear to have been available, but I am pretty sure they were not chosen to save memory. The patch includes a detailed write up of my observations.
The patch is available on archive.org. The direct link is:
