ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data files. The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the games, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never designed!

Some of the adventures ScummVM supports include Adventure Soft’s Simon the Sorcerer 1 and 2; Revolution’s Beneath A Steel Sky, Broken Sword 1 and Broken Sword 2; Flight of the Amazon Queen; Wyrmkeep’s Inherit the Earth; Coktel Vision’s Gobliiins; Westwood Studios’ The Legend of Kyrandia and games based on LucasArts’ SCUMM (Script Creation Utility for Maniac Mansion) system such as Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, Sam and Max and more. You can find a thorough list with details on which games are supported and how well on the compatibility page. ScummVM is continually improving, so check back often.

SAGA:

CubeMania by Sand3r is a PSP homebrew application featuring 3 small puzzle games, called FillUp, Matrix and Slide. They’re all quite similar to each other as they have the same design and idea: a game board that’s made out of cubes, basically just squares.

Quote:

– FillUp – Level 26 fixed: it was unable to solve;
– Previously selected theme now applies automatically at start up;
– Possible to test your newly created levels;
– Matrix is now even more bug free. A rare bug might came up about ‘solving’ the level, while that wasn’t the case * Thank you Mad Mark for all your support
– In PushIt it’s no longer possible to push a crate to the next row when you push it against the outer edge (like word wrapping);
– Added some more advanced PushIt levels.
