If they wanted to referrer to the original dialogue or images, it's easy to do without the source. ScummVM and other projects already have tools out there to extract all the game data from old Sierra games.

Sierra games did not use SCUMM. That was LucasArts (the MM stands for Maniac Mansion).

SCUMMVM can read many other non-SCUMM game files these days.
