Comment (by Commander-Zal):

 That is an original bug that existed when even when played on real 486
 hardware upon release, so I suppose ScummVM is just accurately replicating
 it. The way I got around it back in the 90's was to crank the game speed
 (with the slider in the in-game menu) all the way to maximum, which
 usually allowed you to slide down the rock without the game crashing, then
 you could dial it back to a normal speed to continue the game as usual.

 It was always a rather intermittent bug. On rare occasions it would just
 work even at a normal speed, but I'd say it has a 75% chance to trigger at
 normal game speed, and maxing the game speed would reduce it to around a
 10 or 20% chance to trigger.

 I encountered that bug with the 90's Quest for Glory Collection English
 release version (before they were ever available digitally). I've had the
 bug trigger in DOSBox as well.
