Review
Wander is maybe the first IF-writing system. It's playable on an instance running on Amazon Web Services, and comes with 4 'databases', or game worlds, you can choose from: Aldeberan III, Castle, Library and Tut (Binary Arithmetic Tutorial). I spent some time poking around it, but found myself frequently stymied by guess-the-verb and un-clued puzzles.
Regardless, it was an interesting experience, probably best accompanied by the saga kicked off by Jason Dyer:

The game was ultimately found:
