N900 old skool text based adventures i.e ZORK
 

Probably showing my age here but id really like to see some of these types of games in the repos.

Is anyone able to help?

I'm sure there is nethack in the repos?

Vultures Eye is available. Kinda hard on my old eyes :). No curses (i.e. text) version though, AFAIK.

Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup?

nethack-common and nethack-console?

Have a look around here for nfrotz.
It runs Infocom *.dat files.
Kinda tough to thumb all the commands, tho.

Check out;

(have not tested and NIT away from me at this moment)

http://legendsofzork.com/

http://zorkonline.net/

But the best one, in my eyes, is: http://thcnet.net/zork/

I wish there was an swf version of this so I could download for offline play...

Mmagnetic (found from repos) can run Magnetic Scroll's adventure text games.

Also, I was able to download the flashfile for Zork here and it works great offline on my tablet: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/188334

I've got the sickest setup for playing ADOM but the SSH server is currrently down.

You can telnet (no pun) to nethack, crawl or maybe find a bbs server.

There's also Dosbox which is also something to consider. :)

I really can't stress how well http://thcnet.net/zork/ runs on the NIT.

Just launch that link in any 770, 800, 810, 900 and sit back and enjoy one of the best, old classics ever made in a format that really suits this screen size :)
