Kronos is an interpreter for Magnetic Scrolls, Infocom-style ZMachine, and Scott Adams style adventure games.
Magnetic Scroll's was a UK based text adventure game company from the middle 1980's; their games helped kick off the adventure game genre by introducing high quality artwork, a fancy English-like parser and wonderful plots. While Infocom was better known and more influential, Magnetic Scrolls was lightyears ahead in their time. Infocom was an American company who created the adventure game genre and offered some of the most memorable and involved games in history. Zork will never be forgotten.
The Magnetic Scrolls games were popular on the Atari ST and Amiga platforms and later in "best of" format on the PC. Infocom games were popular on virtually every computer platform that had a keyboard. Now you can play them on your Palm OS handheld through the magic of emulation.
