Queen
Engine developer	twogood, cyx, joostp
Companies that used it	Interactive Binary Illusions
Games that use it	Flight of the Amazon Queen
Date added to ScummVM	2003-09-28
First release containing it	0.6.0

The Queen Engine is used to play Interactive Binary Illusions' Flight of the Amazon Queen.

The engine currently supports all known DOS and Amiga versions (full game in several languages and demos).

There are currently no known bugs regarding FOTAQ.

If you intend to translate FOTAQ, here are some notes to help ScummVM supporting it :

Release a rebuilt datafile (ie. don't rely on queen.tbl to be modified for your version, this extra datafile only references retail versions of the game)
Update the second byte of the "JAS version string" in queen.jas, this allows scummvm to perform correct language detection and select the correct appropriate charset data
If you must define new charset data, submit it to the patch tracker (ScummVM already as hebrew russian and european fonts)

TODO: add references to the tools made by Vag from GreekRoms, compress_queen, etc.
