Making a Text Based Game- Recommendations Needed

Can I get any recommendations on builder or programs to make text based games? Not Interactive fiction but text games like Zork. It's been quite a few years since I've done any programing so the simpler the better.
Thanks in advanced!

I found one. I'm using Inform at the moment, but I'm still open to suggestions.

You could always just write one from scratch in C or Java. That would be the most fun route IMO.

About 6 years ago, I created an original text adventure game using only the C programming language and Microsoft Visual C++. Perhaps, you'd enjoy it. I've attached a zip that contains my game and its instructions.

I think Inform 7 is perfect for that kind of game.
