Rosewater ist ein sehr schönes #pointandclick in einem leicht #steampunk-mäßig angehauchten #Western-Setting, das sich leider hundsmiserabel verkauft.

Eine klare Empfehlung für #Retrogaming-Enthusiasten oder Leute, die einfach gerne ein gutes #Adventure spielen.

Guckt mal auf #Steam oder #GOG nach.

Läuft übrigens auch auf #Linux und mit #scummvm.

Rosewater seems to have a slight exposure problem. Great reviews, discounted 25%, and yet sales have been minimal. If you’ve played it and enjoyed it, please help spread the word! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1226670/Rosewater/

Going to remember what's served me well for years with a minimum of headache: current and current-ish gen games on console, older games on computer with emulators (and #ScummVM and #DOSBox). Really I just need to pick up a #PS3 sometime and I'm set.

Dug out my old #lucasarts adventure game floppies/CDs (thx #scummvm!! ❤️ ) to enjoy playing again with my daughter.

The story about "spacetime six" reminded me pretty much of "something similar to now"...

Enjoy reading "random scifi wisdom" from 1995.

Habe mir aus Langeweile mal Recalbox auf einem Pi400 installiert und dort Blade Runner auf ScummVM kennengelernt. Habe es durchgespielt in 2 Tagen und dabei drei verschiedene Endsequenzen angeschaut.
Wie geil ist das Spiel!? Sehr geil. Ganz anders als andere Point'n'Clicks. Eine echte Detektiv-Story in Cyberpunk-atmospäre und ganz dicker Story. #retrocomputing #bladerunner #scummvm

It's stupid that a game like Curse of Monkey Island (which runs through #ScummVM) is only offered for Windows and Mac on #GOG and #Steam storefronts. Because.....ScummVM isn't exclusive to those platforms. So I have to let #Heroic or #Lutris install the game using Wine/Proton, and then run the game with the bundled copy of Windows ScummVM.

I can copy the necessary files (Resources folder and three others) to another folder, and then add the game with my #Linux copy of ScummVM (which is way...

Es un juego viejo pero se puede disfrutar con #scummvm actualmente. Anda traducido por la gente, nunca se comercializó traducido.

La gente se flipan con que si Monkey island y tal pero se olvidan de muchos otros juegos que salieron en su momento. Evidentemente muchos de sierra pero también estos.

Almost forgot, update on ScummVM is released to Haiku.

Honestly a little surprised that the #ScummVM approach to porting/preserving old games, by maintaining a single program that can run dozens of unrelated but vaguely similar titles without relying on #emulation), isn't applied to other genres.

Would be interesting to see for the sake of mods and crossover antics.

The closest things I know of are #MUGEN, #OpenBOR and the #ZDoom ports of Duke 3D and Blood.
