What is this strange SCI game ? :)

Post by WDA »

Hi,

I'd like to install Police Quest IV (Fr) or Space Quest VI (fr too) on my HTC Desire on Froyo 2.2.

But, for this two games, when i want to add them on the game listing, ScummVM is offering me only to install "sci" or "sci-cd", and i can't launch them... :(

Do you have any idea ?

PQ4 is SCI2 and SQ6 SCI21. None of these is supported yet, which is why they won't play

SCI, "Sierra's Creative Interpreter" is the engine that runs these games. Check our wiki for more info:
