ScummVM is an engine reimplementation for several 2D point-and-click graphic adventure games, including games from LucasArts (Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, Sam & Max, etc.), Revolution (Lure of the Temptress, Beneath a Steel Sky, Broken Sword), and Coktel Vision (Gobliiins, The Prophecy, Bargon Attack), among others.  As of ScummVM 0.10.0, ScummVM supports Sierra's early adventures using the AGI engine (King's Quest, Space Quest, Leisure Suit Larry).  This is because [[Sarien]] merged into ScummVM, and as a result, Sarien is now discontinued.

History

ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data files. The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the game, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never designed!

...

Among the systems on which you can play those games are regular desktop computers (running Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, ...), game consoles (Dreamcast, Nintendo DS & Wii, PS2, PSP, ...), smartphones (Android, iPhone, PocketPC, Symbian ...), and more.
