Hi,
A note about that site...some games seem to be only playable on a computer.
I cannot, for example, find a version of the lurking horror to run under
Keysoft's JZIP  interpreter (or the derivative thereof), though luckily I
got the zorks and enchanter trilogy, plus some others that are excellent, so
it's all good.
Best Regards,
Hayden

Well, copywrite would probably get in the way, though a game with similar 
crazy humour would be fun.

You can however find and play the original infocom hhg text adventure game 
written by adams. it's rfurstrating in it's puzles, but the writing is 
hilarious and there's lots of new stuff that wasn't in the books such as 
extra verses of vogon poetry.

anyway, you can find it at http://if.illuminion.de/index.html

Beware the grue!

Dark.
