Colossal Cave is the only non-Infocom text adventure I know, so that’ll be my guess. (And it’s probably wrong, since I don’t see how it connects to “Victory”.)

Not Colossal Cave, sorry!

Or Softporn adventure?

If not, was it released before 1985?

No and no.

I fear this one may be unanswerable.

Hmmmm… developed commercially by a company? I mean, not a free game developed by one person in his/her spare time.

Blue Lacuna?

EDIT: No, it can’t be. Blue Lacuna was released long after 1997. I had the gender of the protagonist on my mind.

Was it authored by someone who has produced more than three pieces of interactive fiction?

Indeed not. That looks like something I should play, though!
