Polish translation of the Inform 6 Standard Library, by Bartosz Zajaczkowski (2026).

For Inform 6 Standard Library 6.12.8 and the Inform 6.44 compiler; works on both the Z-machine and Glulx. Features automatic declension of object names through the Polish cases (a notation inspired by the Russian RInform), recognition of every case form typed by the player (also without Polish diacritics), Polish grammar for all library actions, and parser questions in the correct case. Includes documentation in Polish (author's manual, supplement, player's guide) and build/test scripts.

Also includes Polish translations of the Inform 6 example games from this archive (Ruins, Through the Looking-Glass, Toyshop, Adventure, Balances, Museum of Inform, Adventureland), with walkthrough scripts and compiled .z5/.ulx files.

License: the library is dual-licensed like the Inform 6 library itself - the traditional Inform license (DM4) or the Artistic License 2.0. The translated example games are distributed free of charge under the same terms as the originals, whose authors are credited in the files.

Supersedes the older Polish library 6/11/PL (2011-2014). Source repository: https://github.com/zajaczkowski/inform6-pl

"Dimity Jones In Puzzle Castle: An Electronic Escape Novel in Eighty-Nine Ciphertexts is a (mostly) fictional story, contained in a single text file, that requires the reader to solve puzzles as they go along, and to use each chapter's solution as a key to decipher the next. Think: escape room in the form of a novel - or, as one reader put it, 'Interactive Fiction meets Advent of Code.'

My wife, the author, passed away six years ago. This is not the last thing she wrote, but it is the most unusual, unapproachable, and personal of her major works. It is also, as the only novel of hers that I cannot breeze through in an afternoon (and despite my unflattering appearance in it), my favorite.

Though Dimity Jones was left unfinished, and perhaps abandoned, at the time of my wife's death, its elements were all there, on her hard disk, awaiting only a final compiling. My contribution to this text has therefore been little more than that of an occasional copyeditor (my wife was a meticulous speller and self-proofreader) and playtester.

(From chapter 66: I release this work in its entirety to the public domain. Do with it as you will; but neither take nor give any money for it. May the likes of Brad never get their meaty little manicured hands on it.)"
