Bad Egg has Value

I'm digging through the Zork source code for mysterious purposes to be revealed later, but I figure I can share some of the more interesting bits with the world at large.  I'm one of those people for whom Zork was a seminal childhood experience, and I'd place it along with Seven Cities of Gold and Hero's Quest (Later called Quest for Glory) from Sierra.  Not that Breach II and Zaxxon didn't show up, but there was an emergent narrative character to these three games that has always stuck with me.
