Τι είναι το ScummVM;

Το ScummVM είναι ένα πρόγραμμα που σας επιτρέπει να παίξετε κάποια κλασσικά παιχνίδια περιπέτειας και ρόλων (adventure και role-playing), υπό την προϋπόθεση ότι έχετε ήδη στην κατοχή σας τα αρχεία δεδομένων τους. Το ενδιαφέρον σε αυτή την υπόθεση είναι το εξής: το ScummVM απλά αντικαθιστά τα εκτελέσιμα που συνόδευαν τα παιχνίδια, επιτρέποντάς σας να τα παίξετε σε συστήματα για τα οποία δεν είχαν σχεδιαστεί ποτέ! To ScummVM προσφέρει μια πλήρη επαν-υλοποίηση των εκτελέσιμων αυτών των παιχνιδιών, δεν πρόκειται δηλαδή για προσομοιωτή (emulator).

Το ScummVM υποστηρίζει μια μεγάλη βιβλιοθήκη από παιχνίδια περιπέτειας (adventure games) με περισσότερους από 325 τίτλους συνολικά, συμπεριλαμβανομένων πολλών από τους κλασσικούς τίτλους που έχουν εκδώσει θρυλικά στούντιο όπως οι LucasArts, Sierra On-Line, Revolution Software, Cyan, Inc. και Westwood Studios. Μαζί με καινοτόμους για την εποχή τους τίτλους, όπως ήταν οι σειρές Monkey Island, Broken Sword, Myst, Blade Runner και αμέτρητα άλλα δημοφιλή παιχνίδια, θα απολαύσετε και μερικούς σχετικά άγνωστους τίτλους περιπέτειας και θα ανακαλύψετε κρυμμένα διαμαντάκια.

Μπορείτε να βρείτε μια πλήρη λίστα με λεπτομέρειες σχετικά με το ποια παιχνίδια υποστηρίζονται και σε ποιο βαθμό στη σελίδα συμβατότητας. Το ScummVM βελτιώνεται διαρκώς, οπότε καλό είναι να ελέγχετε συχνά τη λίστα. Ανάμεσα στα συστήματα στα οποία μπορείτε να παίξετε αυτά τα παιχνίδια είναι τα Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, Android, PS Vita, Switch, Dreamcast, AmigaOS, Atari/FreeMiNT, RISC OS, Haiku, PSP, PS3, Maemo, GCW Zero και πολλά άλλα...

7 Σεπ 2023: Androids get a companion. iOS port public testing
Δημοσιεύτηκε από sev, lman

The day has come. We are super happy to announce public beta testing for the iOS port of ScummVM in the store. Yes, you read it right! Since Lars Sundström, aka lman, joined our team as the iOS porter, we have made significant progress. Thus, you no longer need to compile ScummVM yourself in order to add it to your iOS or iPadOS device.

If you want to help by testing this version, just follow this Testflight link and enroll yourself in the test program. This may require installing Apple’s Testflight app. You can find instructions on how to install games and how to play them on our documentation portal.

We truly appreciate your feedback. You can share your thoughts with the Testflight feedback feature, where you can attach screenshots and post detailed descriptions. Alternatively, you can use our bugtracker, e-mail us at ios@scummvm.org, or post on our Discord Server. Your help will let us eventually add ScummVM to the App Store.

5 Σεπ 2023: Syberia games become more accessible
Δημοσιεύτηκε από sev

Following our announcement about affiliation with ZOOM-Platform, we would like to give a note that they have just started to offer the Macintosh versions of Syberia 1 and Syberia 2 bundled with ScummVM.

This is important because ScummVM currently supports only the Macintosh versions of these games. These versions were produced by Tetraedge and are built on a completely different engine than the original Windows versions; basically, they are reimplementations, not ports. Now, thanks to the folks from ZOOM-Platform, you can easily obtain these game variants.

29 Αυγ 2023: ScummVM announces affiliate program with ZOOM-Platform.com
Δημοσιεύτηκε από sev

We are pleased to announce an affiliate partnership with ZOOM-Platform, a supplier of DRM-free games. If you use a link from this website (or from our Wiki), the ScummVM project will receive a small amount of money to be used for web hosting and other expenses.

Any purchases from ZOOM-Platform qualify, but we especially encourage you to check out games supported by ScummVM, such as the Syberia 1, 2, Galador, Obsidian as well as 18 titles from the Living Books series. In total, we counted 25 games supported by ScummVM, and this list is growing.

We will keep an up-to-date list of the games available from this platform on our Wiki and have added an affiliate link on the sidebar here.

31 Ιουλ 2023: ScummVM 2.7.1: "Stan's previously broken swords" sees the light
Δημοσιεύτηκε από sev

A little while has passed since the release of 2.7.0, and we are now excited to present you with the bugfix release 2.7.1.

We have included a significant amount of fixes and small improvements, in particular:

  • Added ScummVM Log file viewer, so you can easily report the problems on platforms with limited file access, e.g. Android, iOS or even modern Windows.
  • Fixed the shader-based scaler loading on some platforms.
  • Added multiple improvements to AGI, AGS, Cryomni3D and 12 more engines.

We also improved the detection of Broken Sword 1 & Broken Sword 2, so more original versions get properly detected. Thank you to those who submitted bug reports about this, and if you still locate a version that is not recognised, please report it to us (beware that the frankenstein versions that are floating around the internet will not be accepted, only those copied from the original media).

For the full and comprehensive list of notable changes, please refer to the Release Notes.

If you are as excited about the release as we are, you can share our joy by downloading it from our downloads page. If you are using Windows, macOS, or either of the Ubuntu Snap or Flatpack packages, the autoupdater will pick up the ScummVM 2.7.1 release automatically. For our Android app users, the update will be available on the Play Store.

Thank you very much for your continued support. Enjoy!

17 Ιουλ 2023: A New World of Discoveries
Δημοσιεύτηκε από sdelamarre

Adibou, the first game in the beloved children's series, is now ready for public testing!

Also known as Adi Jr.'s World of Discoveries, this 1991 Coktel Vision title began the educational Adibou collection aimed at children of age 4 to 7 years.

Many of the iconic activities and mechanisms of the series were already part of this first opus: planting flowers, playing the game Breakout, and being rewarded with sweets upon completing Read/Count exercises. And of course, this was Adibou's first appearance! Although the floppy release has him speak the same strange gibberish as heard in the Goblins series, he is still the patient and funny learning partner that he's remembered for being in later games.

ScummVM supports all of the game's releases, from the initial 16-color floppy ones to later 1994 CD versions with richer graphics and sound effects. So dig out your dusty Adibou disks, get a ScummVM daily development build, and start collecting sweets while completing math and reading exercises! Please also contact us if you own a version ScummVM is not yet aware of, and report to the issue tracker any problem you may encounter.


As much as ScummVM aims to replicate the original gaming experience, there is one feature we are unfortunately unable to support. When hardworking children complete their virtual sweets collection, a message invites them to mail a floppy disk with their savegame to Coktel Vision, who would send them a parcel containing Coktel goodies and actual sweets! So if you are introducing children to Adibou through ScummVM, be prepared to go to the nearest shop and buy some candy for when they finish the game!
