The 16th Annual Interactive Fiction Competition (IFComp) is currently underway. Each fall, dozens (okay, about two dozen) authors write and submit short works of Interactive Fiction (Text Adventures, if you’re old school) for sharing and judging. All the games are free to download and play (many of them can be played online as well). If you play at least five, you can also vote for your favorites.

The competition is free to enter and there’s not always a lot of quality control, so the games range from terrible to terrific. If you’re interested in Interactive Fiction games at all, this is a great time to check out some new ones.
