Just for fun I tried setting up a virtual Raspberry Pi in Virtualbox. Installing Ruby & ScottKit was pretty straightforward for me.

sudo apt install ruby-full

sudo gem install scottkit

ScottKit is then installed with docs and games in /var/lib/gems/2.5.0/gems/scottkit-1.6.0/

I tried to decompile a gamefile (had to unzip it first) and everything seemed to work alright.

scottkit -d adv01.dat
