You can find out more about interactive fiction, and download new games to play with Zinc, at the following places:

  • The Interactive Fiction Archive - an excellent source for Z-machine and TADS games. Try a mirror site if the main site seems a bit slow.
  • tads.org - the official home for the Text Adventure Development System (TADS), and a good introduction to interactive fiction.
  • The World of Interactive Fiction - a friendly introduction to if and a list of some of the best if games (in the author's opinion).

Zinc includes a TADS 2 interpreter called "Jetty" written by Dan Shiovitz. It also includes software developed by the Apache Software Foundation (namely the Jakarta Regexp library).


To our acute embarrassment Zinc shares its name with several other free projects which you can check out below:

  • ZiNc, a Sony Zn-1/2 and Namco 11 arcade emulator.
  • Zinc, a graphical toolkit for Tk.
  • Zinc, a suite of reimplemented CP/M utilities.
  • Zinc, something you can eat.
