QuoteIf you have a great collection of DOS or Windows based classic point and click adventure games, then the latest update of ScummVM 1.7.0 will do you nicely. I for one have it installed and use it for all my classic adventure games. But what is ScummVM, I hear you ask? ScummVM is a very special program which allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games in the compatibility list with extra added nifty features, provided you already have the main files.
Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, Dreamcast, PocketPC, PalmOS, AmigaOS, BeOS, OS/2, PSP, PS2, SymbianOS and many more..

I somehow misread Amiga for Amstrad and was initially surprised that there was a ScummVM for CPC til I realised my mistake. Which while technically would be quite impressive I'd still stick to versions that could play the games as intended. :)
ScummVM CPC, adventure games in an 8bit filter :o :laugh:
There was a project for a port of a part of the Scumm engine for CPC
I don't know how complex the SCUMM engine is, but there are several Sierra games for the CoCo3...
Some of the early games were available on the C64. They presumably ran on an early, limited version of the Scumm engine, but it might have nothing much in common with PC/Amiga versions.
