I think it would be difficult to find a recent test-based game that could be considered 'well received', there hasn't been much interest in text-based games since the advent of the GUI.

It could be quite interesting to see what is possible with modern languages and text-based applications.

Much interest? http://www.xyzzynews.com/ I'm sure it's a relatively small community, but I bet it's still going strong.
