To be clear, Castle Wolfenstein and its sequel were written by Silas Warner and published by Muse Software, which went out of business in 1987 after going through Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Because the trademark was lapsed, Id was able to use the name for their game. But it wasn't a continuation of the original games, more like a reboot by another team and publisher.
