Platforms

ScummVM has been ported to run on many platforms and operating systems. Developers that have extra information to go with their port have a link in the table below. This means not all ports have a specific information page. Information you can find on these pages include compatibility lists of engines that are available for different ports and devices, extra information on installation and usage, and any comments & personal kudos the porters would like to add. Many thanks go out to the effort of the porters!

There is Small Devices Backend in the works which is planned to be common for all devices with limited resources.
