Very interesting - I used to play a lot of interactive fiction adventures, and I'm gonna check these out.

But here's what I *have* to ask (somewhat ironically): Where does that fantastic 'Shadow over Innsmouth' picture come from?

Thanks! -Sam-

Actually guttertalk Gargoyle is easily the best of the if interperter lot. It's compatible with almost anything and features some impressive typography features... Besides it can even be used to play such retro favs as Wonderland or them Level 9 games.

I came across this a while back, while searching for something else. Then I forgot to go back to it.
