I just found this link to an online version of Zork.
I played this game on an Apple ][ back in the 80's.
I was never as affluent as some of my friends, but it certainly steered me towards the 'text' based style of adventure games, as opposed to the 'graphic' versions. |

I always sucked at text based games.

It doesn't understand anything I type. I guess you can't go on a quest for lesbians in this game. |

I just fought and killed a troll. I checked it was male and hetero so I'm still on a quest for my lesbians.
@Cougar just keep trying directions. Eventually you will find the back of the house with the window. Also there is an egg in the tree in the forest path that must be important. |

^Yup, got the jewelled egg, found the locked grating and am currently teetering on the edge of a big canyon. (Which it tells me I can climb down, but then doesn't understand 'climb down' - sheesh!) Just couldn't find the window!
I'm going to start over and do it properly - feel a session coming on this weekend. |

I also got the jewelled egg. I tried attacking a grating with it afterwards, which the game commented on:

I've known strange people, but attacking a grating? |
I was hoping for a response like this
EDIT: In the house you start at, there's a grue upstairs. Trying to attack it gives:

Ok fello Zorks. I saved my game last time and logged in today thinking it would start me at my last save point but I'm back to the beginning Do you start all over everytime?
Edit: I tried that new thing the kids are doing called "google" you type "restore" in case anyone else is as stupid as me. |
