ABOUT REZORKREZORK
(REturn of ZORK) is my tribute to the Zork fantasy world ... what is
it??? Well, the Jargon dictionary says:
Zork /zork/ n.
The second of the great early experiments in computer fantasy gaming; see ADVENT.
Originally written on MIT-DM during 1977-1979, later distributed with BSD Unix (as a
patched, sourceless RT-11 FORTRAN binary; see retrocomputing) and commercialized as `The
Zork Trilogy' by Infocom. The FORTRAN source was later rewritten for portability and
released to Usenet under the name "Dungeon". Both FORTRAN "Dungeon"
and translated C versions are available at many FTP sites. See also grue.
Go to the documentation page, if you want to learn more
about it and read it carefully if you don't know what a "text adventure
game" is. |
