Zork is of course the quintessential TBAG, alongside Hitchikers.

A couple of other good ones: Vespers: https://ifdb.org/viewgame?id=6dj2vguyiagrhvc2 9:05: https://ifdb.org/viewgame?id=qzftg3j8nh5f34i2 Slouching Towards Bedlam: https://ifdb.org/viewgame?id=032krqe6bjn5au78 (I haven't actually played this one but it's on my list)

I usually play Zork using the Rezrov project: https://metacpan.org/dist/Games-Rezrov/view/rezrov

+1 for 9:05. It’s sort, simple, and has one heck of a twist.
