Just a quick note about designing adventure games - I suggest you read through ftp://ftp.gmd.de/if-archive/info/Craft.Of.Adventure.hlp (Graham Nelson's "Craft of Adventure" document) if you're planning to enter the IF Competition - indeed it's very useful reading if you want to write Quest games anyway. It takes a look at some common pitfalls of games and has handy suggestions for writing games - essential reading!

A version linked above is in Windows Help format which is quite convenient to read; a text format version is at ftp://ftp.gmd.de/if-archive/info/Craft.Of.Adventure.txt . I'll put these links up on the IF Links page at the Quest website soon.
