![Deja Vu: A Nightmare Comes True!! (Macintosh/English)](https://www.scummvm.org/data/screenshots/macventure/deja_vu/deja_vu_mac_en_1_1.jpg)

The ScummVM Team is pleased to announce that the MacVenture engine is ready for public testing, bringing four classics from ICOM Simulations to ScummVM: _Deja Vu: A Nightmare Comes True_, _Deja Vu II: Lost in Las Vegas_, _Shadowgate_ and _Uninvited_.

Wake up in a Chicago bathroom in 1941 with a gun in your pocket and no memory of who you are. Search a haunted mansion for a missing sibling while the undead close in. Descend into the Warlock Lord's castle with a fistful of torches and far too little time. Released between 1985 and 1988, these games defined the point-and-click adventure on the Macintosh: no verb list to memorise, just windows you open, drag and rummage through with the mouse — and a great many inventive ways to die.

Originally developed by ICOM Simulations and published by Mindscape and Kemco, the MacVenture titles were among the first adventures built entirely around the Macintosh interface, with their crisp black-and-white artwork and their trademark overlapping windows. They were later ported to nearly every platform of the era, but the Macintosh originals are where the series began.

For this testing period, ScummVM supports the Macintosh releases, including the 1993 rereleases — the same data that ships with the versions sold today by Zojoi, so those work out of the box once extracted. The MacVenture engine was started during Google Summer of Code 2016 by Borja Lorente, continued in 2021 by hikigaya, and completed during Google Summer of Code 2026. It builds on the research behind Sean Kasun's WebVenture implementation.

As usual, you will need the original game data files to play. To join the test, grab a recent [daily development build](https://www.scummvm.org/downloads/#daily), add your game directory to ScummVM, and play through the games. Our wiki pages for [Deja Vu](https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Deja_Vu), [Deja Vu II](https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Deja_Vu_II:_Lost_in_Las_Vegas), [Shadowgate](https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Shadowgate) and [Uninvited](https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Uninvited) explain which files are needed and how to extract them. Please report any problems you encounter on our [issue tracker](https://bugs.scummvm.org/), following our [bug submission guidelines](https://www.scummvm.org/faq/#question.report-bugs). Screenshots and saved games demonstrating an issue are always helpful.

Now open the door — something is already waiting on the other side.
![Deja Vu: A Nightmare Comes True!! (Macintosh/English)](https://www.scummvm.org/data/screenshots/macventure/deja_vu/deja_vu_mac_en_1_1.jpg)

Il team di ScummVM è lieto di annunciare che il motore MacVenture, utilizzato da quattro giochi classici della ICOM Simulations (_Deja Vu: A Nightmare Comes True_, _Deja Vu II: Lost in Las Vegas_, _Shadowgate_ e _Uninvited_) è pronto per la fase di test pubblica!

Risvegliati in un bagno pubblico nella Chicago del 1941, con una pistola in tasca e nessun ricordo di chi sei. Esplora una villa infestata alla ricerca del tuo fratello scomparso, mentre i non-morti ti accerchiano. Avventurati nel castello del Lord Warlock, con una manciata di torce e un tempo fin troppo limitato. Pubblicati tra il 1985 e il 1988, questi giochi hanno ridefinito il concetto di avventura punta-e-clicca su Macintosh: nessun verbo da memorizzare, solo finestre da aprire, trascinare e piene di oggetti con cui interagire usando il mouse — e molti modi creativi di morire...

Originariamente sviluppati dalla ICOM Simulations e pubblicati da Mindscape e Kemco, i titoli MacVenture furono tra le prime avventure prodotte sfruttando appieno l'interfaccia Macintosh, con grafica vibrante in bianco e nero e le caratteristiche finestre sovrapponibili. Sono stati portati sulla maggior parte delle piattaforme dell'epoca, ma le versioni Macintosh sono quelle che hanno dato il via alla serie.

Per questa fase di test, ScummVM supporta le release Macintosh, comprese le riedizioni del 1993 — le versioni Zojoi attualmente in vendita utilizzano i medesimi file dati e pertanto dovrebbero funzionare senza problemi dopo essere state estratte. Lo sviluppo del motore MacVenture iniziò nel 2016 a opera di Borja Lorente, hikigaya continuò il lavoro nel 2021, per poi essere infine completato durante la Google Summer of Code 2026. L'implementazione si basa sulle ricerche effettuate da Sean Kasun per il suo progetto WebVenture.

Come sempre, avrai bisogno dei file dati originali per giocate. Per unirti al test, procurati un [daily build](https://www.scummvm.org/downloads/#daily) recente, aggiungi la directory del gioco a ScummVM, e prova l'intero gioco. Le pagine wiki dedicate [Deja Vu](https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Deja_Vu), [Deja Vu II](https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Deja_Vu_II:_Lost_in_Las_Vegas), [Shadowgate](https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Shadowgate) e [Uninvited](https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Uninvited) indicano i file necessari e la procedura da seguire per estrarli. Per cortesia, segnala eventuali problemi tramite il nostro [bug tracker](https://bugs.scummvm.org/), seguendo le [linee guida per segnalare i bug](https://www.scummvm.org/faq/#question.report-bugs). Screenshot e salvataggi in prossimità dei bug sono sempre utili.

E ora, apri la porta — qualcosa ti sta aspettando dall'altra parte.

![Screenshot of Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender (DOS/English)](https://www.scummvm.org/data/screenshots/mads/nebular/nebular_dos_en_1_13.jpg)

A self-centered starship pilot marooned on a planet of women. A kingdom under threat from an evil enchanter. A sinister plot at the opera. And a desperate search for an antidote.

After all these years, the ScummVM Team is pleased to finally announce support for all four MADS games:
* Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender - DOS (re-implementation)
* Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender - Macintosh (some features missing, but should be completeable).
* Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender - Bonus Disk.
* Return of the Phantom - DOS
* Dragonsphere - DOS
* Once Upon a Forest - DOS

Special thanks go out to the kind historical donation of partial sources to the team that made this release possible. Rex Nebular in particular, whilst previously supported, has been significantly refactored to use the updated engine core and naming conventions of the other games, so it may be considered an entirely new release. We've already confirmed that some long-standing bugs in the previous implementation have now been fixed. Experimental support has also been added for the Macintosh version of Rex Nebular, as well as the amusing bonus disk collection of content. Finally, Roland MT32 support has also been added, though it’s currently a work in progress, and not officially part of this initial testing. But for those of you who have been looking forward to it, you'll have it soon. In the meantime, support for the original PC Speaker sounds has also been added for your listening enjoyment :)

Help us test the games by grabbing a [daily build](https://scummvm.org/downloads/#daily). Read through our [testing guidelines](https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing#Testing_Guidelines). And please take some [screenshots](https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots) along the way.

The games offer a good range of content, from the mild NSFW of Rex Nebular, the mystery of Return of the Phantom, classic fantasy of Dragonsphere, or the child-friendly simplicity of Once Upon a Forest. Which one will you play first?
![Screenshot of Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender (DOS/English)](https://www.scummvm.org/data/screenshots/mads/nebular/nebular_dos_en_1_13.jpg)

Un astronauta egocentrico, disperso su un pianeta di sole donne. Un regno minacciato da un incantatore malvagio. Un piano sinistro al teatro dell'opera. E la disperata ricerca di un antidoto.

Dopo tanti anni, il team di ScummVM è lieto di annunciare, finalmente, il supporto per tutti e quattro i giochi del motore MADS:
* Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender - DOS (reimplementazione)
* Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender - Macintosh (alcune funzionalità mancanti, ma dovrebbe essere completabile).
* Rex Nebular and the Cosmic Gender Bender - Bonus Disk.
* Return of the Phantom - DOS
* Dragonsphere - DOS
* Once Upon a Forest - DOS

Un ringraziamento speciale per la donazione di parte dei sorgenti originali, che hanno reso questa release possibile. Rex Nebular in particolare, anche se già precedentemente supportato, è stato significativamente rivisitato per utilizzare le funzionalità del motore che sono state aggiornate per supportare i nuovi giochi, e pertanto si può considerare come una nuova release. Abbiamo già verificato che diversi bug di lunga data presenti nella vecchia implementazione sono stati risolti. È stato inoltre aggiunto il supporto sperimentale per la versione Macintosh di Rex Nebular, così come il disco bonus, ricco di interessanti contenuti. Infine, è stato aggiunto il supporto per l'audio Roland MT32, tuttavia è ancora in fase di lavorazione e non è parte di questa fase di test. Ma arriverà presto... nel frattempo, potrai gustarti i suoni per l'altoparlante PC grazie al supporto che è stato anch'esso incluso :)

Aiutaci a testare i giochi procurandoti un [daily build](https://scummvm.org/downloads/#daily) e consulta le nostre [linee guida per i test](https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing#Testing_Guidelines). Cattura anche qualche [screenshot](https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots) durante la partita.

I giochi offrono un'esperienza variegata, spaziando tra il NSFW (soft) di Rex Nebular, i misteri di Return of the Phantom, il fantasy classico di Dragonsphere e la semplicità adatta ai bambini di Once Upon a Forest. Quale proverai per primo?
