Z-Machine is not the games themselves and does not contain or require any ROMs to play.
Z-Machine simply provides an interface to the publicly available Internet Archive posting of the streaming version of the games found here:
https://archive.org/details/msdos_Zork_I_-_The_Great_Underground_Empire_1980
https://archive.org/details/msdos_Zork_II_-_The_Wizard_of_Frobozz_1981
https://archive.org/details/msdos_Zork_III_-_The_Dungeon_Master_1982
https://archive.org/details/msdos_Beyond_Zork_-_The_Coconut_of_Quendor_1987
https://archive.org/details/msdos_Zork_Zero_-_The_Revenge_of_Megaboz_1988
https://archive.org/details/msdos_Return_to_Zork
This requires internet to load the games, but does not use any data after that.

As another user said, the keyboard will frequently stop working suddenly and there seems to be no way to correct it besides restarting the app, which wipes your progress. This essentially makes the game unplayable which is extraordinarily dissapointing especially as the app is not free.
