A Gaming Classic is Coming to Your Browser

Thursday January 15, 2009

Zork is back! First introduced to the PC gaming community 30 years ago, the Zork series was groundbreaking as it allowed players to enter commands that were considered complex for the time. The Great Underground Empire was one of the first games I played on my Commodore 64 as a kid, and I was instantly hooked.

Keeping in line with the growing trend of creating games that are played solely within the browser, Ireland-based Jolt Online Gaming announced yesterday that it will be publishing Legends of Zork. About's Daniel Nations has more on the announcement.
