Whoops... I knew I forgot something...

Yes, the game is in Z-Code, so Frotz (or any other appropriate interpreter) will do. A link to various Frotz versions can be found in the Frotz entry in the applications section.

Both Z-Code and Glulx can be generated using the Inform language by the way, so it isn't too surprising the two overlap at times :)

So which interpreter is required and where do you get it?

Let's see ... it's written in zcode (version 8), anchor.z8 is available at
http://ifarchive.org/indexes/if-archiveXgamesXzcode.html

Although curiously "Anchorhead: Special Edition Demo" the prelude to Anchorhead is written in glulx. Find AnchorheadDemo.gblorb at
http://ifarchive.org/indexes/if-archiveXgamesXglulx.html

Anyway, it looks a good game, time to download.
