I didn't think Shaddowdragon meant Hunt the wumpus, sinse there certainly
isn't anything resembling rpg elements in the original Wumpus game.
I do know though, that a lot of If developers use the wumpus as a legendary
monster, which is why I assume the rpg type game had wumpus in the title
somewhere.

Actually there is at least one z-code game I can think of with RPG
mechanics. Called hmm... can't remember exactly, but something with
wumpus in it I think. Anyway its sort of like the old hunt the wumpus
game, only with a lot more levels, a massive set of caverns to explore,
and a lot of levelling to do and items and weapons to earn.
Unfortunately I could never really get into it since the plot is weird
and you start out as some weird news reporter or something, but ah
well. There's a lot more RPG style games for tads, the most notable of
which is magocracy, which I found rather interesting. You play a hedge
wizard, aka a wizard with almost no magical power or at best slight of
hand elusions or hardly useful spells, and you have to go up against 4
powerful wizards, traps, and monsters within the castle and try to earn
the crown. It takes some strategy and careful use of the rpg mechanics.
These can be found on ifarchive, along with a few others. Usually if
they have some sort of rpg mechanics or battle system its mensioned in
the description.

Action and Z code don't really go together exactly.
The Eamon adventure games are pretty much a mix of rpg complete with
hack and slash xp combat, and basic If puzles, ---- but running them
under windows xp is proving interesting.
