Mysterious Zork Zcode Interpreters Materialize Unexpectedly

Interpreters for Zork, the popular 1977 text adventure game, have recently surfaced online for classic 1980s machines. Zork is not a PDP-10 executable but a virtual machine executable, run by an interpreter written for the PDP-10.

Additionally, there are other types of interpreters, such as programming languages that are interpreted directly from source code.
