Well I managed to find my Commodore 64 Format tape 15
with 'Elvira - The Arcade Game' on it, created by Flair
I will dig around and attempt to find a contact for Flair
and maybe that way they can confirm if its using AGOS or not

Edit: I've contacted who I believe is in control of Flair Software nowadays (a company called MicroValue)
hopefully they can shed some light on it.

Just got hit by reality, Figuring that as its an 'arcade' game it probably is out of the sciope of ScummVM even if its AGOS
haha

Oh yes... there also was an Indy game for C-64, which was just a stupid arcade game...

there actually was an Elvira Mistress of the Dark that was a point n click adventure game by flair and it looks like AGOS engine.

see;

c64 jaws of cerberus also looks like agos as well.

does not mean the c64 WAS using AGOS even if it looks like it.

Regarding to your own Wiki they are

:

Seems like they are already (partially) supported with ScummVM:

Hm, I wonder: Don't the developers discuss these topics internally?

we are talking about the c64 versions which AREN'T listed and whether or not the c64 versions are AGOS or something custom.

The Elvira games you mentioned are actually the same games for several systems including the C64 and they are not from Flair but from Horrorsoft (also the C64 ones!) :

Flair only released the arcade game which was already mentioned earlier:

I split the thread, since it was getting too far off the original topic, and onto subject of the Commodore 64 ports of Elvira 1 & 2.

The Commodore 64 ports of Elvira 1 & 2 were produced by Flair Software. All other ports were produced by Adventure Soft.

As I mentioned before, I'm aware of the Commodore 64 ports of Elvira 1 & 2 games. But as far as I could tell, they don't use the AGOS game engine, but rather a custom game engine.
