ZZT is an ASCII Adventure Game published by Epic Megagames and created by Tim Sweeney in October 1991 for DOS systems. It is now Freeware.
Running the game
Since ZZT is a DOS game, most modern PCs will not be able to run it without the use of DosBox; however, you can use DreamZZT instead. DreamZZT works under Windows, Linux, Mac OS, and even has ports on the Dreamcast and Nintendo DS.
