ScummVM mainly supports engines created using +SCUMM (Script Creation Utility for Maniac Mansion), used in various +LucasArts games such as Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, and others. + +ScummVM also contains interpreters for several non-SCUMM games. Currently +these are Beneath a Steel Sky, Broken Sword 1 \& 2, Flight of the Amazon Queen, +Gobliiins, Inherit the Earth, Simon the Sorcerer 1 \& 2 and The Legend of +Kyrandia. + +At this time ScummVM should be considered beta software, and is still +under heavy development. Be aware that whilst we attempt to make sure +that many games can be completed with few major bugs, crashes can happen. + +If you enjoy ScummVM feel free to donate using the PayPal button on the +ScummVM homepage. This will help us buy utilities needed to develop ScummVM +easier and quicker. If you cannot donate, help and contribute a patch! |
