 Replying to [comment:3 Thunderforge]:
 > So you're saying that some ScummVM games have thumbnails with savegames
 in the original interpreter, but this game does not and that's why we
 don't have it?
 Precisely

 > It seems to me like we could just have ScummVM take a screenshot upon
 save and use that. This could either be limited to games without built-in
 functionality (if we can distinguish between the two). If for some reason
 we can't, I would guess that overriding the built-in functionality would
 still result in a functionally equivalent thumbnail.
 It's a bit more complicated actually, because of how the AGS engine
 manages the saves. Forcing the engine to save the screenshot in any case
 is trivial but as I said, maybe it was changed to avoid appending the
 screenshot data if not required.

 If you want to try and can build from git, it's just a matter of
 commenting out line 883 in ags/engine/ac/game.cpp:
 {{{
 if (_GP(game).options[OPT_SAVESCREENSHOT] != 0)
 }}}
