Randomly found this just now. A little something from the game ZZT...

What means Xyzzy, and is there a Wonderland game called ZZT?

Eh... In Wonderland Adventures the shop has a xyzzy with a really huge price that is impossible to get. Same thing with MOFI, but not for sale.

Is that a sort of a cheat-code that you can skip to a next level? At least, when I searched on Wikipedia I found such about it.

I played MOFI for about halfway, but xyzzy didn't look familiar to me tough.

The "Xyzzy" is referenced once in either of the Wonderland Adventure games.

Original WA: The shopkeeper has a Xyzzy for sale at an impossibly high price.
MOFI: The boomer "Ka-Ching!" has a Xyzzy for sale as well.

He only has it for sale when you tell him you will pay a lot of coins for it.

Ok, what what does it mean? What can you do with it? Is it something like the colored glove things?

It does the same thing as blink.

I heard that it was an item used by Patrick to test his NPC's dialogue. However, the item is in neither of the games, it's fake.

In a midnight post, it says a xyzzy is actually a reference to another game.
