Often refered to as adventure games or text adventures, Interactive Fiction (IF) is much like reading a book in which you are the main character in the story. Your actions, via input from the keyboard, move the story along and influence how events unfold.
In order to play these stories, you will need another small (and freely available) program called an interpreter. Interpreters and information about them are available here.
