Ah, the 7th Guest. The reason (along with Rebel Assault) for buying a CD-ROM drive back in the day. I should fire up ScummVM to play it again. I didn't even understand English back then. Not enough anyways.

Was 7th Guest Scumm? I didn't know it could play video, but I guess that makes sense.
ScummVM has expanded way past just SCUMM engine. T7G is Groovie engine, and future Trilobyte games used Groovie 2 engine which ScummVM also supports now.
Check out the list of engines https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/tree/master/engines
ScummVM also has a very good wiki https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php?title=Groovie
If you're trying to play any old adventure game or point and click, definitely check ScummVM first https://www.scummvm.org/compatibility/
This game was really great if you're a fan of the original, or even if you've never played it

That game scared the crap out of me when I was a kid. I don't know if I could handle a VR experience.
It is definitely not scary in the slightest.
In modern context, probably not, but as a kid, I played that game alone in a dark house all by myself.
I can see that haha. So far I've seen the spooky portrait above a fireplace and animated skeleton.
