10 Minutes of Zork (Boring)

This video is very boring. It involves me playing the old text adventure Zork and being a total jackass. You probably won't even be able to read the YouTube video. Still, here you are!

About Zork: One of the first text adventures of Infocom, the company that believed (or pretended to believe) that the mind was the most powerful graphic-processor that would ever exist.
Released in 1980, it was actually a very advanced game for its time. I have utmost respect for its creators and although there are many strange and obnoxious things (how can I stick a piece of garlic in the bag and the bag in the bottle but not a piece of garlic into the bottle?) there are also many triumphs. You can even count the leaves!

Cool. I played this before. Did you ever win the game? It does take a lot of thought and patience to get through it --especially nowdays with attention-spans being what they are. The game is as long as your typical graphical game today.

Thanks for the vid.

@Dirtfire Nah, I've never beat it. I couldn't really tell you how far I've gotten either since I've restarted it and messed around with it countless times.

Search Zork 1 on Google. It is literally the first result that comes up. :)

[ragnar444]

does anyone know of a game similar to zork???

[capgamer]

Well, there are tons of text adventures if that's what you mean. Probably the best resource is Baf's Guide to the Interactive Fiction archive.

I love this game! Thanks for posting this. Please consider doing a more hi-rez one? It's not boring. It's a good way to show exactly what the game used to look like.
