Text based games (like Zork) for Palm OS?

[BatmanNate]

Anybody know of any? I was a huge fan of those back in the hardware dark ages, and had quite a collection. I was curious if any had been ported to Palm or even PPC.

There's a link here and a better one here that might help. Watch out for grue's.

Thanks for the info, I'll check it out. I was Googling and found on an Infocom fan page a Z interpreter compiled for Palm OS so we'll see if it works.

Look for PalmFrotz, runs all the old Infocom games like a champ.

Got it, and it is running smooth. For anyone who downloads the PC version and is confused about it not
having a *.z5 file, just rename the .dat file and you'll be OK. HGTTG is free now too, as are all 3 Zorks.
