Zork. Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Planetfall. A Mind Forever Wandering. Leather Goddess of Phobos. Sorcerer. Deadline. All the source code is there, as is
a link to a manual that explains how the Lisp-like Zork Implementation Language, ZIL, works (scroll down to download it in PDF, epub, Kindle, and other formats). There's interpreters for all of the major operating systems available, apparently ZIL is very popular in the interactive fiction community.
Activision still holds the rights, and technically this could all disappear in the blink of an eye, but the code is so ancient that it might just stay up. It should prove to be quite an interesting study in natural language parsers.
There's a total of 54 repositories, it took me about 25 minutes to download all the zips and it's a total of about 167 meg when all is said and done.

For example, the tome, and there's no better word for tome as it's near 600 pages long! on Hitchhikers - is just on Hitchhikers! There's similar for Zork, Leather Goddess, Mind Forever Wandering, two for Planetfall, etc! 28 entries in all. This is going to be an amazing partial biography and behind the scenes of Infocom! It's a somewhat bigger download: 28 files which, in epubs, is 1.4 gig!
Back to downloading, I guess....
