Packaging Details![[Original Personal Software Zork Image]](images/zork.jpg)
The Personal Software version of Zork I was simply called
Zork. It came in a plastic zip-lock bag containing the disk and a
36-page booklet.
The old "Folio" packaging of Zork I consisted of a blister pack (i.e. card with plastic tray) with either 5.25" disks or 8" disks. The only documentation was a piece of paper with the instructions. The re-release of Zork I used the standard box format which consisted of a grey box with coloured horizontal stripes. It contained "The GUE: A History" by Froboz Munbar, an instruction manual, and a map.
The release of the Zork Trilogy included all three Zorks, "The GUE:
A History" by Froboz Munbar, a zorkmid, a map, a Bozbarland travel brochure,
a Grayslopes travel brochure, a stock certificate, and a letter from the
Chairman of the Board of FrobozzCo.
