Ohh Zork ;) This game was created for IBM-DOS (that later split to MS-DOS). Anyway good games for these that remember these times and for these that want to see how games looked 20 years ago.

Leather Goddesses of Phobos was another of the good ones. It even had a scratch & sniff card with it. lol I've been goofing with the idea of a FPS version of Zork1 using Doom3/TDM for it. But I can't get the sword to glow a pale blue when enemies draw near it. lol Got most of the white house &, surrounding area done so far. btw Anyone know if Doom4 will have an editor built into it like D3?
