Inform7 (text adventure engine)

Has anyone heard of Inform7? It's a text adventure engine where you make a game using natural language. So, for instance, writing "The Great Hall is a room" creates a room called The Great Hall.

I found it really helpful to work out the map and basic puzzles in my game in Inform7 before transferring to Unity, since I could play and test my game all in text. There are also some beautifully written games made with it like Photopia.

Recently the creator of Inform7 discussed opening the engine and possibly working with someone to get it to work with Unity as a sort of middleware. Blog post here:
