Classic Text Adventure Masterpieces Of Infocom
I'd buy this just to show love and support to the genre and the creators.
What I'd pay for is a re-release of the Lost Treasures of Infocom iPad app, which got hammered by Apple moving versions of iOS. In the meantime, you can find the games at eblong.com/infocom/ and some discussion on the current state of copyright etc.
For those more interested in Magnetic Scrolls, you could do worse than start at msmemorial.if-legends.org/memorial.php and then look at Strand Games, who have updated and re-released many of the games at very good prices.
An equivalent starting point for Level 9 would be l9memorial.if-legends.org/html/home.html but this one probably does need you to search out versions for computers like the ZX Spectrum.
Hope that helps.
I know people continue to add votes to this but I wanted to add a fresh comment to express how important I think these titles are. Infocom is a HUGE part of computer gaming history. Having to play these titles through a web browser or downloading them in bits and pieces from who-knows-where is an insult to the content and its creators. Somebody needs to republish them properly.
I would really love to replay these from GOG!
Day 0 purchase.
Infocom, Magnetic Scrolls and Level 9 games would be a sure buy from me - loved all of them and would love to play them again.
I concur with all the others here ! These are classics from the age of "Good Old Games". So they truly belong here !
GOG *needs* this!!!
Absolutely necessary to have these games at GOG. After all, they are exactly Good Old Games.
Come on GOG! Less of the new games and more games like this please!
Yes. These were the first games I ever played; I don't remember if I ever beat Leather Goddesses of Phobos or not. And the boxes, of, the boxes.
Add my vote here for the Masterpieces collection of Infocom. As an aside, many of the documents and manuals for the classic Infocom games can be found here at the Infocom Documentation Project: infodoc.plover.net/
I agree . The Infocom text adventures are true classics. I would love to see ENCHANTER and SUSPENDED be available !!!
I agree with badbones777 - these classic text adventures are a must for GOG on the simple premise that they are of so much historical relevance to gaming heritage.
By the way ... can we combine the votes from all the duplicate wishes?

I know that Classic Text Adventure Masterpieces and Treasures of Infocom are technically different titles, but I think people just want the games from the collections. Putting the wishes together would better represent the interest ...
Ah, glad to find this. I was about to open a new request thread, but now I can vote and post here instead.
I'd love all the Infocom text-based games. Since many of the Zork titles are here, I assume others of the Infocom stable are at least a possibility. (Activision has the rights, I think?)
C'mon, folks, please vote this one up. :-)
This would be SOOO good - as many Interactive fiction and text based games as possible please - The usual GOG treatment and extras for these would not only be amazing, but I think important in preserving these games as part of our heritage.
