| Akvod said: I didn't even know Heavy Rain had a genre, the most I would aliken to (from what little I know) is a point and click sort of game along with horror game influences. I never played SCUMM, is it old? Can I run it on my PC? I'm only 18 and got into video games recently. |
Well, SCUMM is an engine rather than a game, but it powered the Lucasarts adventure game dynasty of the late 80s, early 90s. Games released on them included...
The Monkey Island series - back when it was actually good
Maniac Mansion and Day of the Tentacle (my favorite)
Sam and Max Hit the Road
Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis
Full Throttle
The Dig
They can all be played on modern machines using a program called SCUMMVM. Search youtube for Day of the Tentacle Intro High Quality for a taste.
