Ever wish you could play your favorite adventure games from the 80s and 90s on your PDA, iPhone, or modern PC? ScummVM is an open source project that lets you run a huge number of games including classic LucasArts titles like Maniac Mansion and The Secret of Monkey Island.

ScummVM 0.11.0 was released today with support for two new operating systems including the iPhone and Maemo (which runs on Nokia's internet tablet devices). There's also support for a number of new games including the freeware game Lure of the Temptress. The updated version also includes improved support for 64-bit systems and more support for non-English versions of games.

On the downside, while ScummVM releases are usually available for pretty much every operating system on earth, the latest version does not include PS2 or GP32 ports because the development team doesn't have anyone available to write those ports at the moment.
