Added to ScummVM and then added ScummVM command to Steam
Adding to Steam with ScummVM
- Install the game through Steam
- Install ScummVM through the Discover app
- Open Flatseal and turn on 'All system files' permission for ScummVM
- Open ScummVM and click 'Add game'
- Select the following directory: /home/deck/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Phantasmagoria/Phant
At this point you should be able to launch the game from within ScummVM. Now we can add it to Steam.
- Create a file named phantasmagoria.sh anywhere on your computer.
- Add the following text into that file:
#!/bin/bash org.scummvm.ScummVM phantasmagoria
- Make the file executable and then add it as a non-steam game
I have about an hour on the Steam Deck without any major issues. The slowdown can be a little frustrating at times, but overall it works.
The mouse occasionally gets lost behind the launcher, but can be fixed by restarting the game.
Midi music doesn't play and the crackling gets pretty bad in outdoor areas.
It works fine, but occasionally gets stuck on the launcher.
Game slows down a lot in the outdoor areas and sometimes if there's something making sounds in a room (fireplaces especially). This causes the cursor to delay changing to let you know what can be clicked.

Runs out of the box, but no midi music and the mouse likes to get stuck a lot.

Working perfectly out of the box.

The game starts, but has far more slowdowns than the original (or rather: on windows...this is a DOS-game). The ingame audio is often garbled as a result of this, but it's often that the game seemingly freezes for up to a minute at a time. The cutscenes (that I've seen) are fine, though. Just extremely low-resolution for current standards. :P


Works, but has some audio problems.
