Yes. As well as SCUMM titles, ScummVM supports Simon the Sorcerer (1 and 2), Flight of the Amazon Queen, and the Revolution Games: Broken Sword 1, Broken Sword 2, and Beneath a Steel Sky. Simon support was initially written by the original founder of ScummVM as a separate program, and later included in the main binary. Revolution Software Ltd. are very nice people and kindly provided us with the source code to BASS and Broken Sword 1/2, from which we based our interpreters. John Passfield and Steven Stamatiadis kindly provided the original source code to Flight of the Amazon Queen. We do not have any plans to support any other non-SCUMM games at this time. If we do, it will be added to the Compatibility List. Unless you work for a company interested providing us with source code for one of your classic titles, please do not ask us to support a game.
