PocketZax 1.0


PocketZax is an interpreter for a large number of Interactive Fiction ("adventure game") titles. It is able to play Z-Machine games, which include all of Infocom's classic games, and also an enormous number of games that have been created more recently using Graham Nelson's excellent Inform application.

PocketZax should provide you with hours of entertainment -- make sure you take a look at the Interactive Fiction Archive Games section for hundreds of games to play on PocketZax.

PocketZax should support all V1 to V5, V7 and V8 games, including the original Infocom titles.

The Z-Machine engine used by PocketZax (ZaxCS) is based entirely upon the "Zax" interpreter written by Matt Kimmel. ZaxCS is a port of Matt's original version into C#.

Here are some key features of "PocketZax":

· Plays V1-V5, V7 and V8 Z-Machine games, including the original Infocom titles.
· Screen configuration options allow a selection of font sizes, and to maximize the window (to take over the Windows Mobile status bar area) if desired.
· Automatically scales to suit 240, 480 or 800 pixel wide screens (or any other, in theory)
· PocketZax is freeware -- you may download and play it for free.

Requirements:

· Windows Mobile 2003SE/5/6.x
· .NET Compact Framework 2.0
