Harold Goldbert over at VH1 Game Break
points out that today marks the 30th anniversayr of
Zork, one of the first adventure games ever. This makes me feel very, very old as I remember playing through the game when it came out. Of course playing Zork also meant pushing the edges of the text parser to see what you could and couldn't do in the game (which was often half the fun of an Infocom game) and to see what little nuggest the developers had hidden in the game. Good times good times...
