About the Game

According to an official press release from Jolt Online Gaming, Legends of Zork is an online game that can be played from any web browser with nothing to download. Players will take on the role of a recently laid-off salesman and explore the Great Underground Empire, a world which has recently fallen into serious disarray. The press release states:

The Royal Treasury has been sacked. The stock market has collapsed, leading even mighty FrobozzCo International to fire employees from throughout its subsidiaries. A craze of treasure-hunting has swept through the remnants of the Great Underground Empire. The New Zork Times reports that trolls, kobolds and other dangerous creatures are venturing far from their lairs. Adventurers and monsters are increasingly coming into conflict over areas rich with loot. It's a dangerous time to be a newly-unemployed traveling salesman, but it's also a great time to try a bit of adventuring.

The CEO of Jolt said in the press release that he's a self-proclaimed "Zork Geek" and that the game will be highly addictive in natureOfficial Site: Legends of Zork
