The Meteor, the Stone and a Long Glass of Sherbet
1996 video game
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Meteor, the Stone and a Long Glass of Sherbet is a 1996 work of interactive fiction by Graham Nelson, distributed in z-code format as freeware. It won the 1996 Interactive Fiction Competition after being entered pseudonymously under the name "Angela M. Horns" (an anagram of "Graham Nelson").[1] The game is set in the Zork universe created by Infocom,[2] or a copy of that universe.[3] Nelson has described the connection to the Zork universe as "tenuous."[4] Sherbet uses a similarly light-hearted style to the original Zork games. The game resembles a traditional Zork-style dungeon-crawl, with some additional twists.
