| | + | '''ScummVM''' is a multi-platform, open-source game engine that reimplements LucasArts' point-and-click adventure engine SCUMM (Script Creation Utility for Maniac Mansion). It has been ported to a wide variety of devices and operating systems. Has the sister project [[ResidualVM]] which focuses on 3D adventure games. |

| − | '''ScummVM''' is an open-source collection of [[game engine recreations and source ports]] based around various adventure games and RPGs from the late 80s and 90s, and supports over 280 games (over 1800 if you count text adventures), making it the biggest project of its kind.

| | ==Overview== | | ==Overview== |
| − | ScummVM was originally a reverse engineered reimplementation of <abbr title="Script Creation Utility for Maniac Mansion">SCUMM</abbr>, the game engine used in the adventure game Maniac Mansion, and it released on October 8, 2001. SCUMM is notable for its portability, having originally been designed for the Commodore 64, and then later ported to the Apple II and IBM PC. The technique of using a virtual machine for game development is not new, as it was previously used for text adventure games in the form of the [[wikipedia:Z-machine|Z-machine]]. But LucasArts also used it for manipulating graphics and sound, as doing so alleviated the burden of having to redevelop Maniac Mansion from scratch, and save time on getting subsequent ports to market.
| + | Over 250 games are currently supported including games from Sierra's AGI and SCI games, Humongous Entertainment, Adventuresoft, and many others. |
| − | | + | ScummVM works by replacing or modifying certain game executables, allowing the user to play on originally unintended/modern hardware. |
| − | ScummVM is similar; the simplicity of the engine makes it portable to a wide variety of platforms. Unlike a full-fledged system emulator, ScummVM only uses the resources it needs to run the games, like the original SCUMM (though the codebase does have emulators for hardware like sound cards), making the system requirements ''very'' modest and forgiving. Multiple versions of the same game are often supported, such as PC and console ports. Support for many games in ScummVM has even been contributed by official developers. Disney even republished Maniac Mansion on Steam using an outdated version of ScummVM.

| − | On October 9, 2020, in a similar precedent to [[MAME]] and its fork MESS, the ScummVM Team merged the sister project [[ResidualVM]] into the ScummVM repository<ref>[https://www.scummvm.org/news/20201009 A merger] ScummVM news - Oct 9, 2020</ref>.

| − | There were instances where when official creators of a point and click game decide to port it to modern systems, they use ScummVM to make it possible. An example would be [https://www.humongous.com/scumm-vm Humongous Entertainment using it for their mobile and modern PC ports.]
