For anyone interested I am putting together a tutorial on how to make a Zork style game. I will show you how to program everything, from the commands, locations, inventory, and puzzles. Also, if you remember how sophisticated the command sentences were in Zork, I will show you how to do that too.

You will be able to program an entire Zork text adventure game once you complete the tutorial.
