I remember waiting for days for the UPS truck to stop at our driveway with the latest game.

In fact, I'm working on a Z-machine interpreter in my spare time.
Awesome! For what platform?
I never got very far in the standard Zork games, but I did love Return To Zork (first graphical one), and I think that counts as interactive fiction.
I loved Zork and HHTTG. Infocom rocked.

Hurrah for text games!
