“What’s new? What’s in it? Can I open it up yet?” – Hah, I can already see you shifting impatiently on your seats. But before you run, let me shed some light on the details of this latest installment of the successful ScummVM series:

• Several new engines and thus new games supported:
  • Sierra AGI engine: Space Quest I & II, King’s Quest I-III and many more, including a vast number of fan-made games,
  • Cinematique evo 1 engine: Future Wars,
  • GOB engine: Bargon Attack, Goblins 2, Goblins 3, Ween: The Prophecy,
  • AGOS engine: Simon the Sorcerer’s Puzzle Pack,
  • Parallel action engine: Nippon Safes Inc.,
  • Touche: The Adventures of the Fifth Musketeer engine.
• DXA movies (higher quality than MPEG2) can be compressed better now and can be used for the Broken Sword cutscenes.
• Added ‘Mass Add’ feature to the Launcher, which allows you to scan for all games in all subdirectories of a given directory (to use it, press shift then click on “Add Game”).
• Many nice improvements to our ports.
• And as usual a gazillion small fixes, tweaks and improvements.
