     Depends on which Apple II. Lots of .z5 games work fine on a IIgs using
the FrotzGS interpreter or the "Advanced Interpreter" included in the Lost
Treasures of Infocom package from Big Red. FrotzGS can handle some .z6-.z8
games, too.

     You can download the interpreters and nearly all of the Infocom games
plus a hundred or so other adventures in z-code form for the IIgs from GSWV.
See the five pages of Infocom and similar adventures starting at ...

Frotz is included on this page ...

     If you put your .z5 format game in a .zip file and attach it to an email
to me, I'll give it a try and add it to the collection on GSWV.
