zorkClone 
This project aims to reimplement the good old nerdy game Zork, parts I, II and III in java.
This is not a wrapper, it's a reimplementation with
- A nice command window (no need for any emulator for a 1980s command line)
- Autocomplete
- A list of commands that you can execute in the current game situation
Note: This project has just started so nothing works right now and no downloads are offered at this stage.
Download
As this project just started, we do not offer any official downloads yet. If you want to try a cutting edge version of the code (still very buggy), you can do the following:
- Download the FOKLauncher (GitHubRepo|Download)
- Download those two files.
- Open the FOKLauncher and drag the two files into the FOKLauncher-Window
- Make sure to check the "Enable Snapshot Builds"-Checkbox or else you will get plenty of errors
- Select Zork (the game) or the game editor and enjoy using a completely buggy software :)
While you are waiting for a official release, you might want to try the original version.
Compile
If you wish to compile the project, just clone the repo and run mvn package (Maven required)
I am a nerd, I want to contribute
I am glad to know that I am not the only nerd around here so let me know via eMail and I'll happily add you to the team. Feel free to file issues, fork or submit PRs.
The roadmap 
- create a functioning framework for textbased adventure games (data model, gui, parser)
- Rewrite the story of Zork I, II and III using the framework
