Show HN: Play Zork with your friends via SSH

Play Zork, with your friends (via ssh) $ ssh -p 64100 someusername@sayitwith.ink password: nitfol > /help > /who > !look (login denied? maybe someone else is using that username, try another)

Gentle reminder: when sshing into unknown places remember to check your forwarding and dont use your github/etc username.

A blast from the past, courtesy of me - play Zork anywhere you can run a OCI container: `<container engine> run -it quay.io/games/zork`

How do you play with other people? I'm confused, but happy to see a hosted SSH application in 2021! Wanna see more of these.

And if you want to play more text adventures, like &quot;The Guild of Thieves&quot;, go to <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;magneticscrolls.net" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;magneticscrolls.net</a><p>Or type in<p>ssh -p 8080 -l magnetic magneticscrolls.net

Did you write a z-machine with sockets or is this piping to an existing one (frotz, etc?) I&#x27;m curious about the internals because I&#x27;m working on my own z-machine implementation too (not ssh though!)

There&#x27;s also watchcdda[1] which lets you play group play cataclysm dda.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;r7st.guru&#x2F;watchcdda&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;r7st.guru&#x2F;watchcdda&#x2F;</a>

I&#x27;m having a very strange sense of deja vu...
