[edit] Description

Blorb is a container file format for packaging Interactive Fiction (IF) games with external resources, such as sound and image files. It was developed by Andrew Plotkin. Blorb is primarily used for packaging Z-code and Glulx IF games, but it is possible to use it for other formats as well.

[edit] Extensions

  • .blb
  • .blorb
  • .zblorb/.zlb (used to indicate Z-code)
  • .gblorb/.glb (used to indicate Glulx)

[edit] Interpreters

To play an IF game packaged as a Blorb file, you need an interpreter for the base IF file. See Z-code and Glulx for appropriate interpreters.
