If you have one of the supported systems, you can directly download the appropriate binary distribution. If you have another system, download the source and read the [Compiling ScummVM](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM) page on our Wiki for directions on how to build ScummVM. If you have successfully ported ScummVM to a platform not listed, please drop us a note, telling which OS, etc. you used.
The latest STABLE release of ScummVM is {release}, and can be downloaded below under '[Release Binaries](/downloads/#release)'. If you run Windows and are confused, download the 'Windows Installer'.
For UNSTABLE experimental versions of ScummVM (for people who know what they are doing), please see the [Daily Builds](/downloads/#daily) section, near the end of this page.
The following builds are bleeding edge development versions made directly from our source repository. That means that they received no proper testing (usually no testing at all) and that any number of things may be broken in them. For example, they might corrupt your config file, crash frequently or might not even start. Use them at your own risk!

Below are the [Game downloads](/games/#games). These currently include eleven freeware games 'Beneath a Steel Sky', 'Broken Sword 2.5', 'Dreamweb', 'Flight of the Amazon Queen', 'Lure of the Temptress', 'Drascula: The Vampire Strikes Back', 'Soltys', 'Sfinx', 'The Griffon Legend', 'Nippon Safes, Inc.', and 'Mystery House'.
Also, you can find cutscene packs recommended for use when playing any of the Broken Sword games or Feeble Files under ScummVM as well as subtitles for Blade Runner.
Since version 1.0.0 ScummVM supports the original cutscenes in smacker format for Broken Sword 1 and the cutscene pack below is not needed. When using older versions of ScummVM you need to get the cutscene pack below (provided with the kind permission of Revolution Software) to replace the original smacker files. It contains video in DXA format and audio in FLAC format. The audio files are also available in OGG format as a separate download to replace FLAC files when using ScummVM on platforms that do not support FLAC audio. Audio files are available in several languages and to use them you just need to replace the English FLAC files from the cutscene pack with the files from your chosen language and format. You may want to get the Subtitles AddOn though as it adds subtitles not present in the original game to the cutscenes.

ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical adventure and role-playing games, provided you already have their data files. The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the games, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never designed! ScummVM is a complete rewrite of these games' executables and is not an emulator.
ScummVM supports an extensive library of over 325 adventure games, including classic titles from iconic studios such as *LucasArts*, *Sierra On-Line*, *Revolution Software*, *Cyan, Inc.* and *Westwood Studios*. Alongside groundbreaking games like the *Monkey Island* series, *Broken Sword*, *Myst*, *Blade Runner* and numerous well-known titles, you can experience truly obscure adventures and discover hidden gems.
You can find a full list with details on which games are supported and how well on the [compatibility page](/compatibility/). ScummVM is continually improving, so check back often. Among the systems on which you can play those games are Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, Android, PS Vita, Switch, Dreamcast, AmigaOS, Atari/FreeMiNT, RISC OS, Haiku, PSP, PS3, Maemo, GCW Zero and many more...
