While you’re getting ready to play QuakeWorld, here is something to whet your appetite. x0n has posted on quake.ie about the latest port of id Software’s Quake 1 engine: IF Quake, created by one of the developers of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Jason Bergman.
A few years ago, Text Mode Quake was summonning Satan all over your hard drive.

Written using the Inform Programming Language – a language for creating Interactive Fiction games, the game has been translated into a text adventure.
