I don't think the with-foreknowledge case is all that interesting. We already have an expert system agent [1] that can win at the game NetHack [2]. This is a far more complicated task than any of the Zeldas, given foreknowledge.

Without foreknowledge, on the other hand, Zelda becomes a whole mess of meaningless pixels and sound waves whereas NetHack retains a level of intelligibility due to its ASCII interface.
