Zork Zero Maps

WARNING! WARNING! The maps found on this page may give away hints to Zork Zero and should therefore only be viewed either upon finishing the game, or if you are very stuck, or while wearing peril sensitive sunglasses (tm).

I'd like to thank Marco Cavagna for providing me with these maps. Here are his original comments (minus some spoilers).

What Is This?

"This" is a collection of the complete maps to Infocom's Zork Zero: The Revenge of Megaboz, done in the same style as the maps that came with Infocom's InvisiClues packages. They are split into 16 JPEG images. KEY is the map key, and MAP01 to MAP15 are the maps to each sub-section of the game, divided and named according to the in-game automap. Also mapped are some areas not included in the automap, like the construction site and the chessboard plain. Together, these maps should include every room that can conceivably be entered over the course of playing Zork Zero.

Why? I'm a crazy fan of the Zork series, and I've always enjoyed mapping all the remote nooks and crannies of the Great Underground Empire. Good maps to most of the original text adventures set in Quendor (the Zork and Enchanter trilogies, Beyond Zork, and Wishbringer) are readily available from a variety of sources, but Zork Zero has always been left out. I suppose everyone felt mapping the largest of the Zorks wasn't worth the trouble because of the automap feature. I disagree, and I hope this series of maps will fill the void.

The contents of the files are as follows:
key.jpg (56k) Map key
map01.jpg (76k) Flathead Castle, main floor (with east & west wings)
map02.jpg (50k) Flathead Castle, secret wing
map03.jpg (57k) Flathead Castle, lower levels
map04.jpg (61k) Flathead Castle, underground lake, mountain, woods, etc.
map05.jpg (36k) Flathead Castle, underground desert
map06.jpg (66k) Flathead Castle, baileys & village
map07.jpg (53k) Port Foozle & underground highway
map08.jpg (36k) Fenshire, ruined summer castle
map09.jpg (36k) Flathead Fjord
map10.jpg (36k) Gray Mountains
map11.jpg (43k) Frigid River Delta
map12.jpg (51k) Fublio Valley
map13.jpg (40k) Antharia
map14.jpg (67k) Rockville Estates construction site
map15.jpg (39k) Magic chessboard

I have spent a long time insuring that these maps are complete and accurate, as well as looking for new and interesting locations using the pigeon and perch. Of course, there are could always be mistakes or things I missed. I am VERY interested in hearing about inaccuracies, regardless of how trivial they might be -- e.g., even if it's just an inappropriately capitalized letter that was lowercase in the room name given in the status line. You can go ahead and e-mail me even if you don't have any quibbles -- it's always nice to know the effort wasn't a waste of my time and somebody else is as interested as I am in the geography of the Great Underground Empire. :)
