Zork can be simply run with frotz (based on curses and part of openwrt
already); the Z-Code files for Zork have been released and should be
found somewhere in the IF archive (<http://ifarchive.org/>).

I've also ported sfrotz (also somewhere in the archive), which is
based on SDL and looks nicer. I plan to release it soon (but don't
hold your breath, my spare time is limited).
