ScummVM

It's probably the coolest app out there!
It's not totally intuitive (honestly, a friend installed it for me) but it is sooo worth it!

Thanks for posting this. One thing I noticed is Sorcery is not currently avaiable for ppc. It says something about comming back soon.

Yeah, I think they are trying to fix some of the problems that were discovered (another reason to have beta testing), one of which was not being able to install to memory cards. Which I hope they are fixing, anyway.

Thank You Mogwai

I went and downloaded ScummVM after I read your post. Installed Day of the Tentacle and was very happy to see it running. I have not been able to play it for a while as the install does not work on Windows XP. But now I can play it on my PocketPC.

I emailed Sorcery PDA

They said it would be available for Download within the next couple of days.

Well, you need the actual game. Perchance you bought it during the glorious 90s? (The golden era of adventure gaming)

What the program does is to emulate the SCUMM adventure game engine, and then only draws the data from the files you put on the device.

McCade: Did you get the voice version or text version? Haven't tried it with full voice sound...

I had the CD which was the voice version of the game, unfortunately the sound file was 200 and some megs. I didn't have the storage for that file so I did not copy it over. It works fine though, thanks to the subtitles.

Now I am digging through my old games trying to find Full Throttle and Simon the Sorcerer. I hope I did not get rid of them.

Yep, I was surprised too. Taken from their website:

Currently the only non-SCUMM game supported is Simon The Sorcerer. This game was added because it was very similar to SCUMM. We don't have any plans to support any other non-SCUMM games at this time.

Here is a list of compatible games:

At the moment the following games have been reported to work, and should be playable to the end:

Indiana Jones & the Last Crusade (256)
Loom (256 color CD version)
Zak McKracken (256 color FM Towns version)
Monkey Island 1 (VGA version)
Monkey Island 1 (CD version)
Monkey Island 2
Indiana Jones And The Fate Of Atlantis
Day Of The Tentacle
Sam & Max
The Dig
Simon The Sorcerer
Simon the Sorcerer II

The following games should load, but are not yet fully playable. Play these at your own risk, and please do not file bug reports about them. If you want the latest updates on game compatibility, visit our web site and view the
compatibility chart.

Full Throttle

The following games are SCUMM engine, but NOT supported by ScummVM (yet).

Maniac Mansion
Zak McKracken (16 color floppy version)
Monkey Island 1 (EGA, 16 color floppy version)
Loom (16 color floppy version)
Curse of Monkey Island

Please be aware that the engine may contain bugs and unimplemented features that sometimes make it impossible to finish the game. Save often, and please file a bug report (instructions on submitting bug reports are below) if you
encounter such a bug.

Hi, I'm new to this site. I have installed scummvm on my Axim, everything is working perfect, I'm playing Simon but I can't close the program or save the game.
¿How can I control scummvm? ¿Do I have to reset the machine to quit?
Any help would be appreciated.
Tnx.
