This is not, I repeat NOT, a flame. Instead a kind pointer to those
genuinely interested in creating adventure games:

Have a look at the adventure creation tools availble. If you're not
looking for re-inventing the wheel there is much done there already
that you may benefit from.

A good list of some of the tools available is included in the monthly
FAQ for rec.arts.int-fiction.
