The '''Hopkins''' engine was used by MP Entertainment for the game Hopkins FBI, the only game they ever published. The game was released for several different operating systems, and due to a fortunate oversight, debug information (names of variables and methods) was left embedded in the applications. This made it much easier to reverse engineer and implement a ScummVM engine.
