I gave you two links: one to Galatea.z8 and the other listed a bunch of Inform interpreters for diffferent computers. I think it's WinFrotz 2000 you need; if memory serves.

Ah, couple of those links were dead :) I will download that winfonts and hopefully can play it!

Thanks!
 
Almost everything IF is found in the IF Archive - a comprehensive store of everything no matter how shoddy; a chronicle of the genre.

The Inform Interpreter section is here.

I've played them all with the exception of Grim Fandango. Broken Sword 3 was a nice attempt to bring the genre to the console generation but it was too easy.

With the exception of GF? Why Grim Fandango is the best of the bunch! Don't miss it for the world, THE WORLD! (Which you can easily reclaime after a night on Civ III anyway) as for BS3, it wasn't the difficulty that I had problems with, but more the pushing of crates. Or suspiciously squared-off rocks. Or conveniently cuboid pieces of masonry. Or cardboard boxes so reinforced that they could support human weight. There is only one game series ever in which block-pushing works, and that is Zelda, but BS3 was trying too hard to be an intelligent Tomb Raider. Plot and atmosphere were both still spot on though, so an enjoyable game, and an admirable attempt at a next-gen adventure.

As for IF, I always used WinFrotz Wabbit.
