Default Zork

I started playing Zork on my C64 back in 1985. Then I had it on my Tandy 1000EX and Trash80 A year or so later. It was the best game I had come across to date.. and was ALL TEXT!

Text adventure baby! YA!

For more info - Zork - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Zork was okay, I enjoyed it on all those same systems you mention

However, in hindsight it the verbiage was very confusing. Written by a bunch of semi-Illiterate teens I am assuming...
