The Interactive Fiction Competition is an annual competition for works of interactive fiction that has been held since 1995.
It is intended for fairly short games, as judges are only allowed to spend two hours playing a game before deciding how many points to award it.
The first competition had separate sections for Inform and TADS games.
Subsequent competitions have not been divided into sections and are open to games produced by any method.
The following is a list of winners to date:
1995 (Inform): A Change in the Weather by Andrew Plotkin
1995 (TADS): Uncle Zebulon's Will by Magnus Olsson
1996: The Meteor, The Stone, And A Long Glass Of Sherbet by Graham Nelson
