I played Zork on so many different platforms including teletype.

This is about time.

Preserving code that shaped generations: Zork I, II, and III go Open Source

Microsoft’s Open Source Programs Office (OSPO), Team Xbox, and Activision are making Zork I, Zork II, and Zork III available under the MIT License.

Does this affect the content within Zork? Could I make a Zork-based tabletop RPG? Or is it strictly about the underlying code?

Just the code I believe, but the text within is pretty important. I’d have to take a closer look but I’d love a Zork RPG or just the adventure.
