ZOMG Zork

Hey all you net denizens, I don't know how many of you remember zork. It was one of the original text adventure computer games and from what I can remember from 15 years ago was quite difficult and filled with monsters and swords and all kinds of wacky stuff. Text adventures have kind of fallen by the wayside recently as people use graphics and a total lack of gameplay to impress people, but for those old enough to remember them they proved to be a lot of fun. The game of zork pits you with only your keyboard into the dank dark world of the dungeon and challenges you to remember a giant map using the power of your mind alone. So try some gaming history and get into it foolz.

surely the best ever is Net Hack- www.nethack.org.

There is even a download which gives some basic graphics - though some would argue that this goes against the spirit of pure ASCII character games...
