I've blogged before about the interactive fiction community, an obsession of mine through most of high school. Now that I have a Handspring (did I mention I got a Handspring?) I can finally try Pilot-Frotz, a Z-code (Infocom game file format) interpreter for the Palm platform. Use the included program (Windows, Linux and C source included) to convert game files (.z1-.z8 files or DAT files off Infocom discs) into PDBs to play. Been playing Hitchhiker's Guide for the umpteenth time on the bus to work lately. See this old article: Running classic interactive text adventures on your Palm device.

See my November 11, 1999 entry with tons of IF links, especially on where to get more text adventure games and other interactive fiction written by the thriving IF community.
