Ah, the 7th Guest. The reason (along with Rebel Assault) for buying a CD-ROM drive back in the day. I should fire up ScummVM to play it again. I didn't even understand English back then. Not enough anyways.

Was 7th Guest Scumm? I didn't know it could play video, but I guess that makes sense.

ScummVM has expanded way past just SCUMM engine. T7G is Groovie engine, and future Trilobyte games used Groovie 2 engine which ScummVM also supports now.

Check out the list of engines https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/tree/master/engines

ScummVM also has a very good wiki https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php?title=Groovie

If you're trying to play any old adventure game or point and click, definitely check ScummVM first https://www.scummvm.org/compatibility/
