Comment (by robertmegone):

 This is because the game uses the exact same base data as the DOS version.

 I added Amiga detection entries for both the original release and the
 Update 5 version, since these can be identified via their language files.
 However, the Amiga CD (Update 5) and the Mac release use identical data
 files, so they cannot be distinguished this way.

 Manually setting the platform to Mac may cause issues, as ScummVM must
 handle music (and some other systems) the same way it does for the DOS
 version.
