Hi Thomas,
Thank you very much. I did not have all of that information right at hand.

Hi Paulette,
There are a number of text adventure game toolkits and languages and
there is no one size fits all solution. Here is a list of the more
common ones with websites for you to look at.
Adrift 5.0
http://www.adrift.org.uk
This is primarily an adventure and development toolkit for Windows
games. The Adrift Generator uses a dialog based wizard for developing
text adventures. It is a great starting place for beginners because
there is little to no programming involved.
Inform 7
http://www.inform7.com
Inform 7 is an interactive fiction design system that uses natural
language and samantics to create complex text adventures. It is fully
cross-platform, and is one of the most widely used and supported text
adventure systems today.
Tads 3
http://www.tads.org
TADS is a free authoring system for writing your own Interactive
Fiction. It offers a complete set
of programming tools for creating high-quality interactive fiction.
Besides the popular interactive fiction and text adventure systems
mentioned above you can just as easily use an off the shelf language
like Python
http://www.python.org
to develop high quality text adventures as well.
Cheers!
