I just saw that "flight of the amazon queen" is included in trisquel.
It's an old adventure game for scummvm.

2004 it was re-released. Sometimes I read it was re-released as free software, sometimes as freeware.
I searched for the code, without success.

Does anyone know more about it?

> The game+engine source code is integrated into ScummVM, which is free software. The game data (images, maps, texts, fonts, voice, music, etc.) is not important to be released under a FLOSS compatible license, since it does not consist of any code, and thus it cannot do any harm (+ theoretically*, it can be easily modified, or inspected).

Thank you for your answer. I didn't expect the gamecode to be integrated into scummvm, too.
And I don't really understand how this is possible; so the code of all games available for scummvm is already onto my pc if I install scummvm?
