Abandonware DOS title

Return to Zork big box

Return to Zork included feelies:

  • A sweepstakes letter. Some packages also included a sweepstakes letter written in French and/or German.
  • The envelope for the sweepstakes letter.
  • The 966 GUE edition of the Encyclopedia Frobozzica, combined with the game manual.

Two versions of the MS-DOS CD-ROM release were developed; one features full-motion video during gameplay, requiring a RealMagic hardware MPEG decoder; the other, more common version is only capable of playing video during non-interactive cutscenes, and substitutes sequences of static images taken from the video footage during interactive gameplay, however it also features a full orchestral Redbook audio soundtrack at these times, which the RealMagic version cannot use because it constantly streams video from the CD-ROM. Both versions use MIDI music whenever CD audio is unavailable.

Edition: for PC IBM

Series: Part of the Zork series.
