Yes, about 10 years ago I was in fact quite a big fan of Indiana Jones
and the Fate of Atlantis (also based on SCUMM) but I moved over. Sure, I
could play it a bit out of nostalgia but that is all. Have you seen the
kids these days playing old-school adventures?
Is the goal of the spin to make happy the nostalgia players or attract
new people to Fedora?
I don't argue against the inclusion of such games, but to ponder then
with something modern and cover a large user base.

Well, Tetris is part of the Gnome games package (even if Fedora let it
out due to a questionable trademark policy), so a game like it is
expected in the main desktop spin, the games spin I think should have
higher goals.
