A new release of ScummVM is ready. This is a thrilling one because we are embracing adventure games as far back as 1976! That’s right, the infamous _Colossal Cave Adventure_, the very first Interactive Fiction game, is now supported by ScummVM.

Besides that (and about 1594 other IF games), we now added 3 more game engines and extended another 4, thus adding the following games to the supported list:

* _Blazing Dragons_
* _Eye of the Beholder - Sega CD version_
* _Griffon Legend_
* _Interactive Fiction games_
* _Operation Stealth_
* _Police Quest: SWAT_
* _Prince and the Coward, English translation_
* _Ultima IV - Quest of the Avatar_
* _Ultima VI - The False Prophet_
* _Ultima VIII - Pagan_

As you can see, we continue our exploration into the world of RPGs.

Other notable changes are: a fully rewritten MorphOS port; a new subsystem for automatic saves present in nearly every engine we support; Right-To-Left display support in our GUI; updated MT-32 emulation code and Discord Rich Presence.

We now support additional different game versions, and have noticeable improvements to Illusions, Kyra, Lab, Queen, Titanic, Xeen and ZVision engines. There is also improved support for Maniac Mansion, NES and Apple //gs versions. As usual, we continue fixing original SCI script bugs in over 30 games and added Roland D-110 soundtrack support to these games.

Of course, you can find the comprehensive Release Notes [here](https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/scummvm/2.2.0/ReleaseNotes.html).

Grab your copy from [our downloads page](https://www.scummvm.org/downloads), or, on Windows or macOS, let the automatic updater fetch it for you.

In addition, we will be releasing a new Android port into the Beta Channel and will need your help with testing. That would be great for us to get your feedback at [the Android Port subforum](https://forums.scummvm.org/viewforum.php?f=17).

Time to dive into a nice Interactive Fiction or fry some monsters in Ultima with a Blazing Fire, if you’re a dragon of course.
È disponibile una nuova versione di ScummVM. Si tratta di una release affascinante dato che siamo arrivati a supportare dei giochi di avventura del 1976! Hai capito bene, il "famoso" _Colossal Cave Adventure_, la prima avventura testuale della storia, è ora giocabile con ScummVM.

Oltre a questo (e a circa 1594 altre avventure testuali), abbiamo aggiunto tre nuovi motori e ne abbiamo ampliato altri quattro, il che ci permette di aggiungere i seguenti titoli alla lista dei giochi supportati:

* _Blazing Dragons_
* _Eye of the Beholder - versione Sega CD_
* _Griffon Legend_
* _Interactive Fiction (svariate avventure testuali)_
* _Operation Stealth_
* _Police Quest: SWAT_
* _Prince and the Coward, tradotto in Inglese_
* _Ultima IV - Quest of the Avatar_
* _Ultima VI - The False Prophet_
* _Ultima VIII - Pagan_

Come vedi, abbiamo continuato ad addentrarci nel mondo dei giochi di ruolo.

Altre novità degne di nota: port per MorphOS completamente riscritto; un nuovo sottosistema di gestione dei salvataggi automatici, funzionante per quasi tutti i motori che supportiamo; supporto per la scrittura da destra a sinistra nell'interfaccia grafica; codice dell'emulazione MT-32 aggiornato, supporto per la Rich Presence di Discord.

Abbiamo migliorato significativamente i motori Illusions, Kyra, Lab, Queen, Titanic, Xeen e ZVision, supportando anche versioni alternative di alcuni giochi. È stata ottimizzata l'emulazione delle versioni NES e Apple //gs di Maniac Mansion. Come sempre, abbiamo continuato a riparare i bug originariamente presenti negli script di più di trenta giochi SCI, e abbiamo anche aggiunto il supporto per le colonne sonore in formato Roland D-110.

Puoi consultare le Note di Rilascio complete [qui](https://www.scummvm.org/frs/scummvm/2.2.0/ReleaseNotes.html).

Scarica la tua copia dalla [pagina dei download](https://www.scummvm.org/downloads), oppure, se usi Windows o MacOS, puoi effettuare l'aggiornamento automatico.

Rilasceremo a breve un nuovo port per Android nel Canale Beta, e avremo bisogno del tuo aiuto per testarlo. Apprezzeremmo il tuo feedback nel [sottoforum per il Port Android]https://forums.scummvm.org/viewforum.php?f=17).

È il momento giusto per iniziare una buona avventura testuale o friggere qualche mostro in Ultima con Blazing Fire... se sei un drago, naturalmente.

No, we do not want to make it a new rule to release ScummVM slower and slower! It has been many months since the last official release... but in that time, tons of work has been done, resulting in one of our biggest ScummVM releases to date!



ScummVM 1.8 adds support for *ten* new games using eight brand new game engines:



* *Amazon: Guardians of Eden*

* *Beavis and Butthead in Virtual Stupidity*

* *Broken Sword 2.5: The Return of the Templars*

* *Labyrinth of Time*

* *Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender*

* *Sfinx*

* *The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Rose Tattoo*

* *The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Serrated Scalpel*

* *Zork: Grand Inquisitor*

* *Zork Nemesis: The Forbidden Lands*



In addition to new game support, we've updated the MT-32 emulator to the latest upstream version of munt, and switched AdLib to Miles Audio for those games which originally supported it. This means games in ScummVM sound better than ever!



We've also overhauled the graphics subsystem in AGI, basically replacing it. As a result game compatibility with old Sierra titles is high as never before, and even includes platform-specific system dialogs, palette and font for Apple IIgs, Atari ST and Amiga versions of the games. Game speed for Apple IIgs is handled properly now. And it's even possible to switch to the looks of another platform.



New ports include GCW-Zero (yes, sev finally got one from the Kickstarter) and Raspberry Pi.



Also, along the way we have moved to a new server and added translation capabilities to our main website. If you'd like to help with translation, [here](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/HOWTO-Translate_ScummVM_Web_Site) is the link with the guide.



This list is far from complete. The more comprehensive version of it can be found in [the release notes](/frs/scummvm/1.8.0/ReleaseNotes) and the binaries for your platforms are available from our [downloads page](/downloads/). The porters are still building their packages, so please be patient if you do not see the up to date download for your platform yet.



Don't get lost in the Labyrinth, and in the worst case call Mr. Holmes! (And we promise to release more often!)

Yesterday, Google announced the list of accepted mentoring organizations and we have the great pleasure to be one of those.



In previous years, we have primarily focused on adventure games. However, after discussing with our sister project ResidualVM, we are happy to announce that, this year, we will also be accepting RPG tasks.



ScummVM and ResidualVM are now waiting for motivated students, willing to work during this summer on reviving adventure and role-playing games.



Be part of it! Make History and join our best GSoC so far! Take a look at [our ideas page](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Summer_of_Code/GSoC_Ideas_2016) or bring your own idea, then contact us: we are waiting for you on IRC impatiently!



One place: Freenode. Two channels: #scummvm and #residualvm

After a very long break, we are finally starting preparations for our next release, ScummVM 1.8.0.



The last one year and a half have been very busy, and we added 10 (ten, zehn, dieci, dix, diez, десять) new games:



* *Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender*

* *Sfinx*

* *Zork Nemesis: The Forbidden Lands*

* *Zork: Grand Inquisitor*

* *The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Serrated Scalpel*

* *The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Rose Tattoo*

* *Beavis and Butthead in Virtual Stupidity*

* *Amazon: Guardians of Eden*

* *Broken Sword 2.5: The Return of the Templars*

* *Labyrinth of Time*



Also, we had a major rewrite of the AGI engine, so all AGI games should work better, but could also have new, unexpected bugs.



Thus, we need your help with testing out these games, including AGI-based ones. For your convenience, we gathered together what requires testing on [our wiki](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing/1.8.0). There are also a few other old classics on that list that could use another run through.



You need to grab a [daily build](/downloads/#daily) of ScummVM and you may start helping right away! If you happen to find any bugs, please report them on our [bug tracker](http://bugs.scummvm.org/). After completing one of the games, please let us know on [the forums](http://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php?t=14006) so we can mark your progress on the [wiki](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing/1.8.0) and other players can concentrate on untested games. Please be sure to follow our guidelines for release testing, which can be found [here](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing).



Also some of these games require [screenshots](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots), which you can make along your gameplay.



Happy adventuring (in a test mode)!

While aboard the subway, your train car is sucked into an alternate dimension, a labyrinth that spans the space-time continuum. Its creator, Daedalus, is forced to oversee its construction by the evil King Minos, who wants to use it to invade and conquer all times and places. Daedalus pleads for the player to find a way to destroy the labyrinth before Minos can complete his conquest.



The ScummVM Team is proud to announce that *Labyrinth of Time* is now playable in ScummVM using the [latest daily builds](/downloads/#daily), and is ready for testing.



Please report any bugs as well as unknown versions you find in our [bug tracker](http://bugs.scummvm.org/), following our [bug submission guidelines](/faq/#question.report-bugs). Any [screenshots](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots) of your playthrough are as usual welcome.



Many thanks to [The Wyrmkeep Entertainment Co.](http://www.wyrmkeep.com/) for sharing the game's original source code with us!

We have been using SourceForge.net for many years. It was the very first home for our project, and it served us very well. However, we had to move on, and we were looking for a new home. Last year Florian Schicker, CEO of [easyname GmbH](http://easyname.com) approached us with the thrilling proposal to donate a server and host it in their Data Centre. And what makes it so special is that they are doing it "because they are veeeery big fans of the good old scumm games"! Go, look at [company teampage in that fancy scumm-feeling](http://www.easyname.com/en/company/team)! A really generous proposal and completely unexpected.



Thus, we are moving. First we moved our main website and downloads, and you probably already noticed the speed boost thanks to the new service. Also, we said goodbye to the advertisements during downloads, as they were provided by SourceForge.net. The only ads that will be associated with this project from now on are the ones we want to do by ourselves (and that, of course, includes easyname.com, look at their nice logo in the right pane). Eventually, we will move more services to the new server, and perhaps even extend it with something new.



So please join us in our joy of a new home!

We recently added support for a new game, [Sfinx](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Sfinx), in ScummVM, and we can now proudly announce that it is ready to be tested. Thanks to [the original developers](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/LK_Avalon), this game is now freeware and can be downloaded on [our web site](/games/#sfinx). And in addition to the original Polish version we are also proposing an English version! This version is not final, so we are looking for people who speak English and/or Polish and who are not afraid of spotting spelling and grammar mistakes in the texts of the game (English only), while also looking for different bugs, glitches and other evil things.



To sum up: We need testers!



Grab our [daily build](/downloads/#daily) and the [data files](/games/#sfinx) of the game, and go for it!



You can report bugs on [our bug tracker](http://bugs.scummvm.org/) following our [bug submission guidelines](/faq/#question.report-bugs). If you have the time for it, [screenshots](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots) are also very welcome!
