Favorite Game Quote:“You are in a maze of twisty passages, all alike” —ZORK (VIDEO GAME)

zork-550x

Simultaneously immersive and frustrating, beautifully worded but logically irritating, this one line epitomizes both the strengths and flaws of the classic text adventure.

“You are in a maze of twisty passages, all alike” is — if you’ll permit me to be absurdly nerdy for a moment — a very well-constructed sentence. It is a statement of mystery and ultimate possibility. It’s brief, yet descriptive enough that your mind can fill in all the blanks: the details of what the maze looks to are ultimately up to you, but you’re given enough information about the current location to make an informed gameplay decision.

 

Sort of.

Because, when you really get right down to it, “a maze of twisty passages, all alike” is a horrendously confusing thing to read when you’re trying to make your way out of a maze. How many passages? Alike how? What the hell am I supposed to do? It is this mixture of attraction to the language, yet utter confusion in conquering it, that makes me play every text adventure I can find…
