Normally the game will confirm and simply respond, "Taken." If the items you are carrying weigh a lot, you may instead get a response, "Your load is too heavy." This will occur if the total weight of your items including what you are trying to pick up, using the size values in the tables, is greater than 100. If you are carrying 8 or more items, but the weight with what you want to pick up is less than the limit, Zork may respond, "You try to pick it up, but with everything else you have, you can't manage to hold onto it!" Despite this, repeated attempts to pick it up may eventually be successful, becoming less and less likely as the number of items increases.

Some of the [[Zork II: The Wizard of Frobozz/Special Situations#The Wizard|wizard's spells]] may affect items you are carrying. "Feeble" and "Fumble" will cause you to drop an item, and the number of items you can carry will be reduced. "Filch" will take one valuable item that you are carrying away from you and put it in a [[Zork II: The Wizard of Frobozz/Cobwebby Corridor Areas#Trophy Room|secret location]].
