Zork!
« on: June 05, 2009, 12:18:34 am »

For these of you who haven't had the change to ever play Zork (myself included), here it is!

http://thcnet.net/zork/index.php

This version runs through your web browser, so you don't have download anything.

Some basic commands for you:
Help
Info
Login <name> <password> (So you can save your game. Also this command lets you create a new account)
save
restore


So good luck people, and try to not be eaten by a Grue.

First ten minutes of play I ate my loincloth and then got some limbs torn off by a super friendly rat. Thumbs up from me.

Heh heh heh...

I have a dos version + dos emulator, though I haven't beaten it yet. Every geek ought to play this, even if just for the cultural references.

Just play it in a modern Z machine interpreter, no need for Dosbox.

Planetfall is better anyway.
