I'm looking to choose a text adventure system for my first text adventure ( actually not my first but last time I wrote one of these was ~25 years ago on the ZX spectrum!!!)

Ideally I want it to be mostly text based, and fairly quick and easy to setup. The main aim is to set up mini adventures to play along with my kids. But it would be nice to choose something that is extensible should i have the time to add basic graphics and sound etc, but not as a neccessity.

I'm an experienced progammer, but would rather choose something simplish so that my 5 yr old son can set them up too.

So what is suited to me? What do most people use? Sorry if this is already answered in another thread, I'm sure you will be used to this sort of question!

Thanks,
Spurtus.
