Frotz - Text Adventure Interpreter

[CKeichel]

It would be nice to have Frotz ported to the Caanoo, it is a z-Machine Interpreter, which lets you play all Infocom Textadventures and thousands of Interactive Fiction games, that were written by homebrew developers/authors during the last years.

Here's a compromise: you can play z-machine games with the Frotz interpreter that has been ported to the Game Boy Advance. The virtual keyboard leaves somewhat to be desired because of the input limitations of the platform, but it does work.

I found the interpreter here: http://www.pocketheaven.com/ph/gbafan/files/emu/frotz.zip

Another option would be to play the games in DosBox, but that's still not ported for Caanoo & I don't know if a virtual keyboard has been implemented.
