A starter pack for those new to interactive fiction

Recommendations by MathBrush

I had a list like this before which I deleted, but I noticed it had a lot of views on intfiction, so I thought I'd make a new one to help people out.

It has 10 web-based games, 10 parser games for beginners and 10 parser games of medium to easy difficulty. Each list is organized alphabetically.

Edit: I've also added Adventure, which is the game that parser fiction can get traced back to in terms of influence.

A well thought out list, however, I think any starter list deserves to have at least one Infocom game. I would add Zork 1 since it is both a great game and freely downloadable. It is hard to say which one of the latter ten should be removed to add Zork 1 if you want to stay with the 10/10/10 theme, but it still belongs on this list.
