Description foser 2002-01-29 21:38:20 UTC
Freesci is the free Sierra Creative Interpreter, which Sierra used to build some
of it's early adventures on. Titles like Leisure Suit Larry (2-7), Space Quest
(3-6), King's Quest (4-6) and some others use this engine. You still need the
original game datafiles to play the game.

It runs -amongst others- on Xlib, so i only added the virtual X11 dependency for
now. Later on i will make a more sofisticated ebuild to include other
dependencies as well, but this should work fine for now.

What category do you recommend?
Comment 3 foser 2002-02-11 12:32:02 UTC
Either app-emulation or app-games, i would go for app-emulation. It's not a game
without the original data files and it's emulating the original Sierra Interpreter.
