Zork: Grand Inquisitor is the third point-and-click graphic adventure game in the Zork series. The player character, AFGNCAAP (Ageless, Faceless, Gender-Neutral, Culturally Ambiguous Adventure Person), joins forces with a dungeon master named Dalboz who has been trapped in a lantern by the Grand Inquisitor, Yannick. They attempt to find three legendary objects that will restore all magic to the realm and bring about the fall of the Inquisitor.

Installation

Required data files

For more information on how ScummVM uses game data files, see the user documentation.

GoG version

  • Use the GoG installer, no further file copying is needed

CD version

  • Copy the following from the zgi directory of CD1 into the game root directory:
    • The zgi_mx directory
    • cursor.zfs
    • death.zfs
    • inquis.str
    • inquis.zix
    • r.svr
    • scripts.zfs

Fonts

Download the Liberation fonts package here here and extract the archive. Copy all the ttf files into your ScummVM extras directory. For more information, see the user documentation.

Alternatively, ScummVM comes with the GNU FreeFont fonts, though at the time of writing these fonts cause some text rendering issues.
