ScummVM - Engine to run DOS Point & Click Adventure games. C++, SDL2, OpenGL

They're now affiliated with ZoomPlatform, if you want to both buy DRM-free and support ScummVM: https://www.scummvm.org/news/20230830/ , https://www.scummvm.org/ (link on right under PayPal)

u/d10sfan has added ScummVM port for Sanitarium to Luxtorpeda repos. Thanks to that, modern port of the game can be played as a Steam game.

SCUMM VM is now like that, plenty of Point and Click games https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm

It's a long shot, but some old games are available via https://www.scummvm.org/

Ultima 6 - I use ScummVM to play it. It's a great engine that provides a layer of UI compatibility over the game.

The game is "Beneath A Steel Sky", an old school point and click adventure. And though the graphics are pixel style, they are still very well done, and the game and story are still great. The emulator is ScummVM. There's some other games that were released as freeware.

ScummVM, which has been working on Adobe Director support, can detect the game (thank you @mistydemeo <3), but trying to run it will softlock you on the game's title screen, unable to click anything. It's likely this will be fixed in the future, but for now I can't recommend it for this particular game.

I’m trying to enable JIT in Play! emulator using Azula to patch the .ipa with TrollStoreJitEnabler, but it gives an error: “couldn’t copy dylib to workspace”. Azula is a mobile clone of Azule that should work on jailed devices (but it doesn’t atm), can someone jailbroken or with a Mac please try to patch it with Azule instead?

You can read the progress report and see the commit history on GitHub

there's an interesting project called "Play! emulator" tho https://purei.org/ Using HLE emulation (no bios and mimicking hardware, much better) and even modern rendering with vulkan... but... it's not ready yet for the average user yet (As of today only 37.34% of the compatibility list is labeled as "Playable", so those game run with minor issues or smoothly)

Consider also starting usingPlay! , it's not on par with the compatibility as Aether but hey it's ad-free at least for now, I hope and will get proper updates.

The biggest problem of Play! is that it is impossible to Google it. The website's domain purei.org doesn't connect to Play! very well... Maybe the project needs a more unique name...

Try "Play!". https://purei.org/

Did some searching and apparently apple doesn't allow emulators on the app store. Now, for PS2 emulators, Play! is the only one I know of that is developing for iOS.
