The Adventuress

There’s only one Scumm for me

by Amber on June 25th, 2007

This tidbit of news is a little bit old, but I just learned about it today, because I didn’t pay attention to anything last week, apparently. ScummVM, the lovely piece of software that allows us to play classic adventure games has gotten a big ol’ update. The new version of ScummVM, entitled ScummVM 0.X.0, or the Tic-Tac-Toe edition, has added several new gaming engines to the original Scumm engine. Here’s the list of new engines included in the update according to ScummVM’s site:

  • Sierra AGI engine: Space Quest I & II, King’s Quest I-III and many more, including a vast number of fan-made games
  • Cinematique evo 1 engine: Future Wars
  • GOB engine: Bargon Attack, Gobliins 2, Goblins 3, Ween: The Prophecy
  • AGOS engine: Simon the Sorcerer’s Puzzle Pack
  • Parallaction engine: Nippon Safes Inc.
  • Touche: The Adventures of the Fifth Musketeer engine.

The introduction of the Sierra AGI engine alone is awesome. Now, we can play adventure games where ultimately, we can end up dead!

Go on over and download the new version so that ye may play many a fascinating adventure game.
