The early SCI0 interpreter did not include special characters such as the accent grave, accent aigu, and the umlaut. A later SCI0 fork named S.old enabled the foreign language support.
Media
All the SCI0/1 games were released on both 3.5" & 5.25" disks, except XMAS Card 1988, Astro Chicken & Fun Seeker's Guide, which were public domain. Later, SCI11 were released solely on 3.5" or CD-ROM.
All the games listed are disk versions unless noted else.
Graphics
SCI0 games only come in 16 color versions at a resolution of 320 by 200 pixels for EGA/Tandy/PCjr. CGA and Hercules were supported with a driver that dithered to 4/2 colors on-the-fly.
SCI1 games were released as two versions: 16 color (EGA/Tandy)and 256 color (VGA/MCGA) versions. The 16 color versions are smaller in size and ran faster on contemporary systems compared to their 256 color counterparts. This was done for people with CGA/EGA/TANDY graphics capability and/or lower system speeds.
SCI11 games came only in 256 color versions that included a driver which dithered the 256 color pictures to 640x200 in 16 colors on-the-fly.
SCI2 games supported 640x480 SVGA graphics.
