Jump to navigationJump to search | This article may be confusing or unclear to readers. (August 2019) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) |
This article lists all the known versions of SCI (Sierra's Creative Interpreter) games.
Supported Platforms[edit]
SCI games were originally available on:
| Platform | SCI0 | SCI1 | SCI2 & SCI3 |
| IBM PC | Yes [1] | 286+ | 386+ |
| Apple Macintosh | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Atari ST | Yes | No | No |
| Commodore AMIGA | Yes | Yes | No |
| Fujitsu FM Towns | No | Yes | No |
International Translations[edit]
This table will show information about translations/international versions:
| Engine | Foreign v. | Languages known | Suspected | Notes |
| SCI0 | Bi-lingual | FR/GER | JAP | Converted SCI0 games |
| SCI1 | Bi-lingual | FR/GER/IT/SP | None | |
| SCI1.1 | Standalone | FR/GER/IT/SP/PT | JAP | Only RESOURCE.MSG differs |
| SCI2 | Standalone | FR/GER/IT/SP/PT | JAP | Sometimes subtitles only |
The early SCI0 interpreter did not include special characters such as the accent grave, accent aigu, and the umlaut. A later SCI0 fork named S.old enabled the foreign language support.
Media[edit]
All the SCI0/1 games were released on both 3.5" & 5.25" disks, except XMAS Card 1988, Astro Chicken & Fun Seeker's Guide, which were freeware. Later, SCI11 were released solely on 3.5" or CD-ROM.
All the games listed are disk versions unless noted else.
Graphics[edit]
SCI0 games only come in 16 color versions at a resolution of 320 by 200 pixels for EGA/Tandy/PCjr. CGA and Hercules were supported with a driver that dithered to 4/2 colors on-the-fly.
SCI1 games were released as two versions: 16 color (EGA/Tandy)and 256 color (VGA/MCGA) versions. The 16 color versions are smaller in size and ran faster on contemporary systems compared to their 256 color counterparts. This was done for people with CGA/EGA/TANDY graphics capability and/or lower system speeds.
SCI1.1 games came only in 256 color versions that included a driver which dithered the 256 color pictures to 640x200 in 16 colors on-the-fly.
SCI2 games supported 640x480 SVGA graphics.

Notes[edit]
- ^ Including PCjr & TANDY
- ^ QA file claims int. ver 0.000.397
- ^ Original SCI0 re-release of Hero's Quest under another name
- ^ But NOT cracked, it's just missing from the game's script code
- ^ a b c d x.yyy.yyy is cleary a standard value, so these games actually have different interpreters. Games which share the same interpreter are grouped together in the same row.
- ^ a b c d AKA Twisty History
- ^ Version file says: KQ6 version 1.000.00G
- ^ The version string contains the text: "No version number", it's the same interpreter with both of the games.
