General Questions

How were the spells and potions named?

  1. GNUSTO, FROTZ, REZROV, and IZYUK are taken from Enchanter.
  2. FWEEP is the sound that the deranged bat in Zork I makes. Perhaps it is repeating the last word it ever heard as a human.
  3. AIMFIZ is ZIFMIA backwards. ZIFMIA, in Enchanter, causes someone to be transported to YOUR location.
  4. GOLMAC is short for gold machine, the time travel device in Zork III. The gold machine was probably imbued with this spell.
