You could simply start another copy of ScummVM for that. (Provided that I understood you correctly)

Geez, lots of weird ideas popping up here lately

Very... Thats why the games we support have save/load in the first place :D

Once ScummVM adds support to exit back to the scummVM UI without having to close the whole program, then it wouldn't be difficult to switch games anyway.(It already supports double-click starting of games)

This has already been posted on the forum, but switching games is made possible by doing this:

By creating a dos bat file with the follwing instructions:

@echo off
:loop
SCUMMVM.EXE
goto loop

This makes it so when u exit scummvm it re-runs it, enable u switch between games. To exit scummvm when you are finished just close the dos window.
