Browsing the Wikipedia List of game engine recreations, i found this one:
World Adventure Game Engine is a game engine for running classic Mac graphic text adventure games that were created using Bill Appleton's World Builder game creation system.

I'n not an expert how to compile this project, as I can't find any executables there,
but it shows an OS X screenshot so far.
Any ideas how to?
