Dragonsphere is a graphic adventure in the classic third-person LucasArts and Sierra style.

The fantasy plot involves a king who learns that an evil sorcerer, magically imprisoned 20 years ago, is about to break free from the spell, and embarks on a quest to defeat him before he manages to regain his powers.


Required data files

For more information on how ScummVM uses game data files, see the user documentation.

PC, CD and Floppy

  • *.hag
  • *.idx
  • *.00?
  • *sound*

For GOG/Steam versions, you'll need to mount the .gog, which is just a renamed ISO file. You then have two options: 1) combine the contents of the CD's /resource/ folder with the contents of the dragon/ folder of the installed game. 2) Copy the CD contents to a folder, leaving critical files in the .001 archive. In this case, the MADS engine is able to play the game using the install archive directly, along with the files in /resource/. This is slower, though, then option 1, since with option 1 the individual files of the installer archive can be directly used.
