> Unfortunately, no. I think if you Google for "text adventure games" you'll find a lot of the ones that have to be played in Java or with an interpreter. The latter involves downloading something to your computer, and the former involves playing in a little box on the screen. This is different from the games on this site, where it's a standard web page and all you have to do is click small buttons to navagate through the games.
In the interest of completion, I should say that they differ in other ways. Non-AGLL text adventure games don't give you a list of options to choose from - you have to figure out your possibilities yourself, and type them with correct spelling and syntax - and you can die in them (depending on the game, sometimes a lot). These issues may not matter to you but they do provide a different feel to the games.
