It’s the best experience when I play Gahan Wilson’s The Ultimate Haunted House

### 3/5 — great start

*2025-12-03, version 2.9.1*

The iOS port is pretty good, but how am I meant to link my Onedrive when the app doesn’t allow the JSON response to be pasted?

### 4/5 — Glad it's here

*2025-05-25*

Has a lot of QOL issues but I'm very happy to have it

### 5/5 — Classics

*2025-02-22, version 2.9.0*

Love digging back into the classics.

Haven’t tried on the iPad yet with the newly added support for Apple Pencil, but I’m interested in seeing how it’s being handled.

I’d really like to see Apple TV support too.

### 5/5 — One of the greatest applications of all time

### 5/5 — Amazing app!

*2024-12-24*

I was not familiar with scummvm….. but i downloaded this free app, bought a couple of wadjeteye games (golden wake and unavowed) on gog that they dont have available for ios and i havent had a chance to play and this app works great to make these ios games!!!

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2024-09-16, version 2.8.1*

Almost perfect app that is only missing gamepad key mapping support

### 4/5 — Great but one big problem

*2024-09-14*

I love to play backyard baseball and having it on mobile is great. There’s just one thing tho, it keeps crashing mid game. I’ve tried redownloading it like 5 times and still the same thing. Weird thing tho, it only happens the second time I boot it up. Please fix this big problem.

### 4/5 — Version 2.8 missing Magic Keyboard Touchpad support

*2024-08-17*

As title said, the 2024 Magic Keyboard touchpad isn’t working. It does support the keys though. The rest of the software is working beautifully. Really hope this gets updated as it would make my iPad the ultimate ScummVM system for me on the go.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2026.3.0 — 2026-06-23

ScummVM 2026.3.0 "Carousels & Killer Whales" comes to fruition

So far, we are able to keep the release cadence. This quarter, the team is bringing you a set of new and old, all exciting features!

Newly Supported Games:
Nancy Drew: The Haunted Carousel
Nancy Drew: Danger on Deception Island
Noctropolis
Cartoon Carnival
Alfred Pelrock: En Busca de un Sueño
Pilot Brothers: On the Track of Striped Elephant
Pilot Brothers: The Case of Serial Maniac and 5 more games on the same engine

General enhancements:
This was the period of the Google Summer of Code start, so we had an influx of new contributors, who were busy with improving our GUI, adding small and big quality-of-life features, such as improved search, kinetic scrolling, and revamped About dialog.

Engine bugfixes and improvements:
Ten supported engines got their tweaks and improvements. Martian Memorandum got script bug fixes, Simon 2 multilanguage support became better, there is a new whole control panel for the GLK engine, allowing to adjust text rendering, Last Express had some corner case bugs squashed, which also happened to the Rex Nebular. Might and Magic 1 had major rewiring of its keymapper, and the enhanced patch support plays better than ever.

There was active work on the Nancy engine, and besides the two newly added games (number 8 and 9), most of the already supported games in the series received their bug fixes (thank you very much for submitting bug reports).

Two new games landed to the SLUDGE engine, and we made them downloadable from our website. And last but not least, the TwinE engine, used for the Little Big Adventure series, got its own measure of bugs fixed.
