Perhaps we could compile a list of macPC text adventure games I know of Telnet zork, and another user posted another Mac-Playable game like this a day or so ago- Ill dig it up and post links when I get time.

Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy and Leather Goddesses of Phobos also both by Infocom you may be able to find with Google searches.

Im kind of surprised GOG.com hasnt gotten ahold of them yet either but you never know what issues might exists with original rights holders, etc.

I remember these ones because a good friend of mine played them all back in the day and sometimes I would sit and play with him.

This might be of interest to you: GOG.com hasnt gotten around to fixing these up with Boxer for OS X but Id imagine it shouldnt be too hard to do yourself if you feel so inclined.

If youve got an iOS device around, then the Lost Treasures of Infocom (also see the publishers website ) will get you Zork I for free, and a 10 in-app purchase will unlock, if Im counting correctly, 26 more of Infocoms text adventure games - I think thats everything they made except for Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy which is, indeed, sadly trapped by rights issues, and it includes Leather Goddesses of Phobos, which used to be hard to find.

In general, if you search for Lost Treasures of Infocom at Amazon (or similar), youll probably find various versions floating around (hint, track down other names for the same collection in the see also or folks also bought sections on Amazon), as Infocoms games have been republished in various collections over the years, which have gone out of print, only to be republished again later.

If youre handy with poking at files, the needed game files can be extracted from any of these versions (e.g.

DOS version), and fed into one of the Z-machine interpreters, like Frotz, to play on almost any platform (seriously, I had these running on my Palm Pilot, back in the day).

What youre looking for, in general, is called Interactive fiction these days (back when we were playing the original Zork, there was just Zork, and Adventure, and no categories - plus, we rode around on dinosaurs).

If you google for Interactive fiction, youll find the Interactive Fiction Archive and the Interactive Fiction Database - which could keep you readingexploring for weeks.

I have fond memories of playing Adventure (Colossal Cave Adventure) while working at DEC (Digital Equipment Corporation) back in the early 80s.

Download here---- Or from the developers website here---- Edit: I never played any of the Zork series so I just downloaded the Lost Treasures of Infocom from the App Store to give that a try on the iPad.

If you find an old Z machine file for Planetfall, A Mind Forever Voyaging, Zork, etc.
