You seem to imply that text adventures are dead. They are still very much alive, although commercially they are pretty much dead. You can find a thriving community of Interactive Fiction enthusiasts who write their own games and hold their an annual competition in the newsgroups rec.arts.int-fiction and rec.games.int-fiction. All classic and newer games can be downloaded from http://ifarchive.org.
