Comment (by BenCastricum):

 I checked and have the same MD5s as you, I was md5summing the maniac game
 from dott, which is the DOS version.

 Meanwhile I figured out the case of the problem. ScummVM incorrectly sets
 the encryption key to 0xFF, but the .LFL files aren't encrypted at all. If
 I hardcode scummvm to use 0x00 as key, the games from the extracted disk
 images run fine.

 The solution is to fix the encryption key selection. This needs a bit of
 research (it's been a while). I'll get back on this.
