BBC has made changes to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy game, dropped Flash for an all out HTML5 version.
All this because of the 30 year anniversary since the game was launched:

You may want to specify "Game" in your subject line.

The only place it indicates "game" version and not the BBC series or the film is buried in the complex link name.

Nice! Though I was never able to complete and beat an Infocom game. They were fun, but kind of frustrating.
