While Zork and its relatives are interesting, are there any non-narrative based text games?

  Puzzle based? - Anchorhead it's Stephen King/Lovecraft like. - All Thing Devours it's a time travelling puzzle. - Spiritwrak it's s Zorkian free as in freedom adventure, were guessing what does the spell do to the world it's part of the puzzle and story.

    I was thinking more like open ended simulations. Perhaps in the vein of 'Footy Fanatic', a football management simulation, https://classicreload.com/footy-fanatic.html https://classicreload.com/footy-fanatic.html

      The Kingdom of Loathing [1] is fun. It's not a pure text adventure, it has a GUI and there is hand drawn art. [1] https://www.kingdomofloathing.com/ https://www.kingdomofloathing.com/

      I avoid these. Also, you could always get the source code, as the game it's free as in freedom.
