Just a quick heads-up that the Typing Festival is currently live on Steam. It started yesterday and runs until Monday (09.02.2026). There are some nice discounts, and you can filter by genre if you want to focus on IF/adventure games.
I do have a bit of self-interest here, since my game is featured as well.
Bael’s Rock: A Text Adventure (about $1 after the discount).
It’s a classic parser-based text adventure. I’ve written about it here a few times already, so I don’t want to spam, but you can check out a review by Rovarsson here:

I also think The Crimson Diamond may be interesting. While it’s not typical IF, it does incorporate parser mechanics. I haven’t played it myself yet, but it has many good reviews. It’s a point-and-click game, but you mainly interact with the environment using typed commands.
