Hi forgive me for being a complete noob. How do I play a gblorb game?

Some of them will allow you to play in-browser. If they don't, you can download a free interpreter for it. For mac, I use Spatterlight (which you can also get free from the app store for an iOS device, I believe):

For PC, you can use an interpreter like WinGlulxe:

There are other interpreters, but the only one I use is Spatterlight on my Mac. Perhaps someone else will chime in with a list of other good interpreters.

Welcome to the joy of parser games!

There's a nice list of interpreters for playing gblorb games (on multiple platforms, including iOS/Android) here:
