Zork II.

The Wizard appears at random intervals, points his wand at you, and
casts spells on you, all of which start with the letter "F":

        fall
        fantasize
        fear
        feeble
        fence
        ferment
        fierce
        filch
        fireproof
        float
        freeze
        fumble

If your lamp burns out, he may cast:

        fluoresce

And, if you try to do bad things to the princess, he will appear and cast:

        fry

Those all do fairly obvious things. Fantasize is particularly amusing;
until it wears off you are told that you see various unusual things such
as a pot of gold, and a grue (which are never seen by the light of day).
