Still waiting for Apple Adventure
News/release from Sasq:
These are some text adventure interpreters I have ported to Nintendo DS; It was accomplished by first porting GLK (a library for handling Interactive Fiction) and then compiling GLK-versions of the compilers.
- Frotz
Plays new and old (Infocom) zcode format adventures. Currently the only
interpreter confirmed to handle load/save correctly.
Includes games like Zork, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy etc
- Level9
Plays old level9 adventures.
Includes Knight Orc, Snowball etc
- Magnetic
Plays Magnetic Scrolls adventures. Graphics are not handled correctly at the moment so avoid copying over the GFX-files. Includes The Pawn, Guild of Theives etc
- Nitfol
Another interpreter for zcode. Is actually more modern then FROTZ, but the GLK-versions has problems with the titlebar & fixed width window.
This is the first release and contains a few known and unknown bugs.
I will release a fixed v1.1 after feedback.

I've tested it with a few Level 9 and Magnetic Scrolls Adventures. It works fine and, in the case of Level 9, even displays the graphics - though the palette seems to be garbled. Three cheers go to SASQ!
:thumbup:
--edit--
There are random crashes in all emulators, and text output is garbled in Frotz after saving.
This is fantastic, thank you!!!
Can anyone advise where to get L9 and Magnetic Scroll adventures? I only have Infocom ones...
...many thanks.
this is starting to make me like text adventures
I don't go on here much anymore. Find me on GBAtemp.
