I've run win frotz with Hal, win frotz tts, and win tads.
personally, I've always gone on what games I liked, rather than the
interpreter.
Thus my favourite games have been worlds apart and bable which were tads,
dreamhold, the djini chronicles, pythos mask, lash and wearing the claw
which were zcode, and then the earth and sky series which started in zcode,
then moved into glulks.
You can find them all by searching baffs' guide.
As I said, I completed azteca, but thought it was okay, then started the
pentori series on the basis that malinches' very aggressive promotional
style (which actually i find to be rather irritating), and the fact that
their a commercial company must have some basis in fact, but after getting
stuck in the fireplace in the first pentori prequal (I had to actually
E-mail malinch about that one), then getting practically nowhwere with the
next pentori game, ---- well lets just say i sort of lost interest.
Beware the grue!

these.

Well I am trying to figure out azteca and I got to embarrassing point of
the
jaguar room but can't figure out how to open the wall by the jaguar.
I see it is very similar to muds and sometimes the concepts on how it
works.
I will ask questions as I run across them but it looks great so far.

Hi mike.
No problem with traffic about if on this list, --- ask away.
If you are a newby though, you could do much worse than checking out
http://www.microheaven.com/IFGuide/step2.html which have a great
beginners'
guide.
I'd also recommend you try the game dreamhold by andrew plotkin found at
http://ifarchive.heanet.ie/if-archive/games/zcode/dreamhold.z8
you can run this with windows frotz, winfrotz (including the winfrotz tts
version which outputs directly to sapi), or anything which plays z code
game
files.
It's a really great story and adventure, but whats' more is it's probably
the best introduction to If I've seen. there are various ones knocking
about, but for a hands on in game intro going through how to give
commands,
and what puzles are, dreamhold is deffinately my favourite (not the least
because it's an incredibly interesting game and story in it's own right).
hth.
Beware the Grue!
Dark.
