[REQUEST] Gargoyle

Gargoyle is an IF player that supports all the major interactive fiction formats.

Most interactive fiction is distributed as portable game files. These portable game files come in many formats. In the past, you used to have to download a separate player (interpreter) for each format of IF you wanted to play.

Gargoyle is based on the standard interpreters for the formats it supports. Gargoyle is free software released under the terms of the GNU General Public License.

The build is somewhat new to me, it uses a compiler called jam, so while it should be quite easy to install, I don't really know how to specify the install directories, not to scatter files around the system while creating the package with PKGBUILD.
