wrong game mate, if you are a zorkian you should know that zorkians throw rocks at vultures, and hard boiled grue eggs at stalagmites (oops sorry I forgot trolls are not zorkians LOL) perhaps you're refering to trolls?

Hey Bucky,
It's interesting that your favorite Zork game is Beyond Zork.  Although they take place at opposite ends on the original Zork trilogy, I sort of group Zork Zero and Beyond Zork together.  Maybe it's because they both came out after the trilogy, they are both quite large, and they both incorporated unique user interfaces compared to the original games.  Maybe it's also because they were the two games that I could never seem to finish.

Just last week, I finally completed Zork Zero, and now it has become my favorite Zork game.

I keep starting Beyond Zork, but I never get very far.  I'm sure if I played it through, it would become my favorite, but there are a few things about the design that keep me from completing it.  I really have to make the effort, because I know I'm missing something great.

Did you play Zork Zero?  If so, how would you compare the two?
