That&#8217;s why, despite people frequently asking, ScummVM still doesn&#8217;t play it.<\/p>\n<p>However, A few weeks ago, a guy by the moniker of Strangerke stepped forward and expressed interest in working on support for Fascination. Obviously, reversing a game is a long and tedious process and although a lot the ground-work has already been done, many features are still missing (let alone the bug in the expression parser), so it will still be a while until you can properly play Fascination. But you will, eventually. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just a quick overview of the latest developments for people interested in Fascination (I know you&#8217;re out there, you&#8217;ve been bothering me for some time now \ud83d\ude09 ).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[25,11,61],"tags":[7,65,4,62],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/drmccoy.de\/gobsmacked\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/194"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/drmccoy.de\/gobsmacked\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/drmccoy.de\/gobsmacked\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/drmccoy.de\/gobsmacked\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/drmccoy.de\/gobsmacked\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=194"}],"version-history":[{"count":20,"href":"https:\/\/drmccoy.de\/gobsmacked\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/194\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":215,"href":"https:\/\/drmccoy.de\/gobsmacked\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/194\/revisions\/215"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/drmccoy.de\/gobsmacked\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=194"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/drmccoy.de\/gobsmacked\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=194"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/drmccoy.de\/gobsmacked\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=194"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
