I'm glad you liked it!
I was looking into what it would take to do this a few months back!
Thank you for doing it (and saving me from all that work!)
I'd love to hear how hard it was to move the game here. Did you find an HTTP version to convert or did you have to do all the work yourself?
Nice. Once you've solved it in English, you can try in Lojban! (with a more rudimentary interface)

@stack The hardest part was not necessarily the porting-it-to-Gemini aspect, but the game itself! I based it on a project that had already ported the original data file for the game to be played in the Python REPL, as Xitzin runs on Python.
Since I have never finished the game myself, there was a lot of trial-and-error and playtesting!
The code is here if you want to take a look https://github.com/alabato/adventure-gemini
