From readme:

 

TI99/4A:

Insert the game disk

Choose wheter you want to play with 40 or 80 columns

When prompted to insert game disk 2, just press a key

 

The game is compatible with the TI-99/4A and Geneve 9640 computers. The minimum requirements for TI-99/4A are: 32K, Disk controller, and Extended BASIC cartridge. 80 column mode requires either an F18A or V9938 hardware enhancement.

For the Geneve 9640 you need TIMODE (GPL) and the Extended BASIC cartridge files. You may use either the 40 column or V9938/58 option.

I tried the game tonight and played a few turns.  I'll put this on my list to play.  Thank you for sharing.  

 

An alternate option for Geneve users: GPL/XB are not required.  The game may also be run from the OS command line via the EXEC program. "EXEC 80TERP-I"

Works exactly as advertised! I did not realize you meant InfoCom format, neat! Thank you for supporting the TI world. MV

Actually it fully (seems to) supports the TI.  If you download the full zip file bundle ~5mb, you will find the A1RLOCK_ti99.dsk in the bundle. It also has just about every other format one can think of off hand.

 

Support for: 40 col., 80 col via F18A and 9938/9958 systems.

My wife made me sign something like that when we got married.

Yes I know and I have tried it already on the TI  I was actually referring to an actual boxed package like the Hibernated one.

you could contact the author (the Italian Marco Innocenti, https://jpking.itch.io/) and ask him if he intends to make a physical release.

Thank you for the correction. I thought you were referring to playing on line vs a local system!
