ScummVM is an interpreter for point-and-click adventure games that can be used
|
|
as a libretro core.
|
|
|
|
ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical
|
|
point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data files.
|
|
The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with
|
|
the game, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never
|
|
designed!
|
|
|
|
Originally it was designed to run LucasArts' SCUMM games, such as Maniac
|
|
Mansion, Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle or Sam and Max. SCUMM stands for
|
|
'Script Creation Utility for Maniac Mansion', which was the first game for
|
|
which LucasArts designed this system. And much later it gave its name to
|
|
ScummVM ('VM' meaning Virtual Machine).
|
|
|
|
Over time support for a lot of non-SCUMM games has been added, and ScummVM now
|
|
also supports many of Sierra's AGI and SCI games (such as King's Quest 1-6,
|
|
Space Quest 1-5, ...), Discworld 1 and 2, Simon the Sorcerer 1 and 2, Beneath A
|
|
Steel Sky, Lure of the Temptress, Broken Sword I and II, Flight of the Amazon
|
|
Queen, Gobliiins 1-3, The Legend of Kyrandia series, many of Humongous
|
|
Entertainment's children's SCUMM games (including Freddi Fish and Putt Putt
|
|
games) and many more. You can find a full list with details on which adventures
|
|
are supported and how well on the compatibility page. ScummVM is continually
|
|
improving, so check back often.
