Text adventure games are awesome.
Always remember to bring your towel.
Did a unit on interactive fiction for a grad seminar once, and sent a link to the Infocom Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy game as an optional primer. No one in the room except the prof and one guy who was experimenting with MUDs at the time had ever played a text adventure.
I mean, that was fun for me...
