Zork: Grand Inquisitor

ZGE was what we were waiting for. It is a return to the quirky humor of the Zork series, with the spirit of adventure of the text games. Return to Zork was also fun and full of humor and quirky characters, Zyst: Grimesis, I mean Zork: Nemesis was a let down because it was not Zork enough (except for the journal it came with by Bivotar of the obscure Zork CYA books) but was like Myst with a bad attitude. ZGE is an excellent, fall out of your chair laughing conclusion of the series with MANY references to the earlier games.

Extremely well thought out with an obvious effort made to make this a great gaming experience.

Absolutely! I was raised on the zork series, but even if I wasn't I think I would enjoy this just the same. I stopped before Grand Inquisitor so this review is after my first playthrough. Not only was it a blast but the gog version worked on my system flawlessly. That is always my primary concern. Video parts played fine, no plugin mess, no major pauses, and while it all looks quite dated it doesn't detract enough to stop the fun. Played it all the way through and really enjoyed it(had to use a gameFaq here and there though). Totally worth revisiting or playing for the first time.

Zork is a classic needed in everyones list. From the amazing text lead to the dark Nemisis to the so funny Grand Inquisitor, you need these games!

Possibly the best Adventure game I've ever played, never got past the beginning as a kid, so I didn't know it was a parody game until I was older, which made the game even more fun to play
