Interactive Fiction & Inform7
What is Interactive Fiction?
Back before computers could handle graphics and sound, people still wanted to play games on their computers. So they created games and stories that the player experiences entirely through text. Similar to the 'choose your own adventure' books, the player interacts with the characters and items in the story by typing in a variety of commands and actions. The choices the player makes affects the way the story or game plays out.
