New Site: MacSCUMM 03 Jun, 2002 / Comments: 3

Yes, MacSCUMM. This site is an essential stop if you're a Mac user and own any of the older LucasArts SCUMM games. MacSCUMM is the home of "SCUMM Explorer," sort of the Mac equivilent to SCUMM Revisited (it's a program that lets you dig through the data files to games like Monkey Island and Full Throttle, play the sounds, look at the background art, and more).

In addition, the site also contains numerous patches and updates to SCUMM games (both official from LucasArts and unofficial patches for bugs LEC never fixed), as well as history and easter eggs specific to the Mac versions of the games.

There's more than that if you poke around some more, so go poke around some more.

    MacScumm Rocks if you are into the really awesome Mac ports of LEC games like I am. I really like the fact that the patches allow the older games like (Loom, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and Monkey Island 2) to run properly on the newer PowerPC Macs. The MacScumm history section is pretty interesting also but, I always thought that Escape from Monkey Island was based on the GRiME engine from Grim Fandango and not SCUMM.
