No. I actually went and played Zork again to be sure. Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy had me pulling my hair out as a kid. It was definitely Infocom.
I also, as a kid, write a lot of Infocom-style games, so I can appreciate how good of a job they did. but I've also looked at their source code since it has all been released and I wasn't too far behind them.
I forgot about Hitchhiker's -- to be fair, that did seem less like a game/world and more like a big, funny... art piece? I never got back to it after needing hints to make it to the Heart of Gold.
