The Archive's mission is to preserve the history and practice of interactive fiction and make it freely available to the public. Since 1992, the Archive has collected thousands of text adventures, text adventure development tools, articles, essays, hint files, walkthroughs, jokes, and sly references to Greek politics. It also preserves the history of IF institutions such as the IF Competition and IFDB. This cultural memory is one of the foundations of the IF community. IFTF logo As of mid-2017, the Archive is managed by the Interactive Fiction Technology Foundation. It is funded by the donations of IF supporters like you. The Archive was founded by Volker Blasius. Its organization and the indexing of its contents is largely the work of David Kinder, Doug Orleans, and Andrew Plotkin.
