Frequently Asked Questions

What games can I play here?

The hub rotates a set of officially free releases — most reliably Beneath a Steel Sky and Lure of the Temptress (both freeware by Revolution Software), plus other titles whose publishers allow free distribution through ScummVM, such as Dreamweb and Drascula, and playable demos. Each is the full game where marked as freeware.

Is this legal?

Yes. The games offered through this ScummVM web build are the editions their rights holders distribute for free — Revolution Software has given Beneath a Steel Sky away since 2003, for example. ScummVM itself is GPL open source. No commercial game data is involved.

What is ScummVM?

ScummVM is an open-source reimplementation of the engines behind classic adventures — originally LucasArts’ SCUMM system, later expanded to dozens of engines. It powers official re-releases on GOG and Steam. The WebAssembly build embedded here is the same engine running in your browser.

Where do my saves go?

ScummVM’s web build keeps saves in your browser’s storage on your device. Save via the in-game menu (Ctrl+F5) and your adventure resumes exactly where you left it, in the same browser.
