+      ScummVM is a program which allows you to run a wide variety of classic
+      graphical point-and-click adventure games and role-playing games,
+      provided you already have their data files.
+
+      The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the game,
+      allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never designed!
+
+      Currently, ScummVM supports a huge library of adventures with over 250 games in total.
+      It supports many classics published by legendary studios like LucasArts, Sierra On-Line,
+      Revolution Software, Cyan, Inc. and Westwood Studios.
+
+      Next to ground-breaking titles like the Monkey Island series, Broken Sword,
+      Myst, Blade Runner and countless other games you will find
+      some really obscure adventures and truly hidden gems to explore.
