Moments out of Time 2 on various interpreters

When I was chatting on ifMUD, someone told me they couldn't play past
the prologue of Moments out of Time 2 (http://baf.wurb.com/if/game/
2997), because Spatterlight couldn't run the game past that point. I
am writing a review of the game and would like to check a few facts.

1. Did other Spatterlight players have this problem?
2. Does this problem prevent you from playing the game with
Spatterlight even if you type "T" for text mode at the beginning?
3. Are there any non-Spatterlight Mac OS X Glulx interpreters that can
play the game?

Occasionally. It would load sometimes in text mode, but playing it from
that point on was too frustrating. You'd have to click multiple times in
the command box to be able to type. Then, once you hit enter, a random
window would get the focus and you'd have to repeat the process again,
and again, and again. Ugh.

No, but see above.

Yes. Andrew Hunter's Zoom plays it beautifully (graphics and layout, but
no sound).
