Has anyone heard much about Infocom's new release "Return to Zork"?  I got 
the demo from wuarchive, and it seems like it might be pretty decent.  The 
interface is not text.  You get a graphical view of each room as you walk 
into it, which is probably a more fitting style for an infocom game than a 
continuous motion graphic game like Ultima.  You get to use various 
icon-type tools to look at the stuff there (like Sierra, but it seems more 
complex than "use hand on wall" or something).  There's also over an hour 
of spoken dialogue in the game.  At the end of the demo, there's a great 
picture of Beautiful FCD#3.  I almost cried.  The demo says the game was 
released in mid-summer 93.  Was it?

P.S. Lost Treasures of Infocom is great!  I got eaten by a grue, and I 
liked it!
