What is Lectrote?

The Interactive Fiction interpreter in an Electron shell

Lectrote currently supports:

Glulx games (.ulx or .gblorb), as produced by Inform 7. Z-code games (.z3/.z4/.z5/.z8 or .zblorb), as produced by Inform 7 or earlier versions of Inform. Hugo games (.hex). Ink compiled game files (.json), as produced by the Ink scripting language.

You can also use this package to construct a "bound game" -- an app which plays a single built-in game. This is a package containing Chromium, the interpreter, your game file, and perhaps some additional configuration. You can distribute this as a standalone game application; it's bulky but it lets people play your game.
