I've been thinking of putting a TADS adventure together that
sort-of spoofs Infocoms "Graphics" age and commemorates the old
text adventures we know and love. I wanted to set it in the Zork
/Enchanter universes but was wondering about copyright infringement.
If I don't charge money and make it "freeware", is there still trouble?
And if not, how could I make the appropriate messages? Can I have
one blanket statement , "Zork, Belboz, frotz ... are copyrights of Infocom.."
or would it have to be referenced every tep of the way, "You say 'hello
sailor(tm)' to Belboz(tm) who gives you the frotz(tm) spell."
Any ideas?
Thnx!
