'''Infocom''', founded in 1979, is the shining light in the history of commercially-released [[Interactive Fiction]] games. Beginning with ''[[Zork]]'' in 1980, the company released over thirty games, many of which are still played.
The company's strengths included technical innovation (their [[Text Parser]] was one of the best in the business, and the z-code data format Infocom created is a popular choice for distributing new IF games to this day), rich storytelling, and creative packaging (most Infocom games shipped with "[[Feelies]]", thematically-related props which might form part of the [[Copy Protection]] system, constitute clues, give extra background information, or just be included for the lulz).
