Changed design of reference
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 Disney even republished Maniac Mansion on Steam using an outdated version of ScummVM.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/20201009A merger] ScummVM news - Oct 9, 2020</ref>.
