Afgelopen weekeinde is versie 1.0.0 van ScummVM uitgebracht. Dit programma is een 'crossplatform interpreter' voor een aantal point-and-click adventure-engines, met name de spellen die met de Scumm-engine van LucasArts zijn gemaakt. Op die manier is het mogelijk om klassiekers als Simon the Sorcerer, Beneath A Steel Sky, Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle en Sam and Max te spelen op Windows, de PSP, AmigaOS 4, DreamCast, PocketPC, PalmOS, BeOS, diverse mobiele apparaten die op Symbian draaien en zelfs de iPhone. In versie 1.0.0 is onder andere de lijst met ondersteunde spellen verder uitgebreid, is de stabiliteit verbeterd en is het programma nu ook te gebruiken op de Linux-smartphones van Motorola. Het volledige lijst met veranderingen sinds versie 0.13.1 ziet er als volgt uit:
