ScummVM

You stumble upon an old handwritten book. It describes an island world named Myst. When you touch one of its last pages, you are transported to the island. As you explore Myst you learn about its inhabitants Atrus, Catherine and their sons ... [More] Sirrus and Achenar. You quickly discover each son is trapped in a book. Will you solve the puzzles of the Myst ages and free them? The ScummVM Team is proud to announce that Myst and Myst: Masterpiece Edition are now playable in ScummVM using the latest daily builds, and are ready for testing. Reports of bugs and unknown versions are appreciated. They should go to our bug tracker, and must follow our bug submission guidelines. You can help us fill our screenshot gallery with captures from your playthrough. In addition to the main game, the making-of video and the demo version are supported. [Less]

No, we do not want to make it a new rule to release ScummVM slower and slower! It has been many months since the last official release... but in that time, tons of work has been done, resulting in one of our biggest ScummVM releases to ... [More] date! ScummVM 1.8 adds support for ten new games using eight brand new game engines: Amazon: Guardians of Eden Beavis and Butthead in Virtual Stupidity Broken Sword 2.5: The Return of the Templars Labyrinth of Time Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender Sfinx The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Rose Tattoo The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Serrated Scalpel Zork: Grand Inquisitor Zork Nemesis: The Forbidden Lands In addition to new game support, we've updated the MT-32 emulator to the latest upstream version of munt, and switched AdLib to Miles Audio for those games which originally supported it. This means games in ScummVM sound better than ever! We've also overhauled the graphics subsystem in AGI, basically replacing it. As a result game compatibility with old Sierra titles is high as never before, and even includes platform-specific system dialogs, palette and font for Apple IIgs, Atari ST and Amiga versions of the games. Game speed for Apple IIgs is handled properly now. And it's even possible to switch to the looks of another platform. New ports include GCW-Zero (yes, sev finally got one from the Kickstarter) and Raspberry Pi. Also, along the way we have moved to a new server and added translation capabilities to our main website. If you'd like to help with translation, here is the link with the guide. This list is far from complete. The more comprehensive version of it can be found in the release notes and the binaries for your platforms are available from our downloads page. The porters are still building their packages, so please be patient if you do not see the up to date download for your platform yet. Don't get lost in the Labyrinth, and in the worst case call Mr. Holmes! (And we promise to release more often!) [Less]

After a very long break, we are finally starting preparations for our next release, ScummVM 1.8.0. The last one year and a half have been very busy, and we added 10 (ten, zehn, dieci, dix, diez, десять) new games: Rex Nebular and the Cosmic ... [More] Gender Bender Sfinx Zork Nemesis: The Forbidden Lands Zork: Grand Inquisitor The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Serrated Scalpel The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Rose Tattoo Beavis and Butthead in Virtual Stupidity Amazon: Guardians of Eden Broken Sword 2.5: The Return of the Templars Labyrinth of Time Also, we had a major rewrite of the AGI engine, so all AGI games should work better, but could also have new, unexpected bugs. Thus, we need your help with testing out these games, including AGI-based ones. For your convenience, we gathered together what requires testing on our wiki. There are also a few other old classics on that list that could use another run through. You need to grab a daily build of ScummVM and you may start helping right away! If you happen to find any bugs, please report them on our bug tracker. After completing one of the games, please let us know on the forums so we can mark your progress on the wiki and other players can concentrate on untested games. Please be sure to follow our guidelines for release testing, which can be found here. Also some of these games require screenshots, which you can make along your gameplay. Happy adventuring (in a test mode)! [Less]
