MCGA is on board VGA by IBM with less memory, exclusive to PS/2 machines, that's all.
Replying to @keylimesoda and @dark1x
High res VGA is not available due to memory, and I can speculate that EGA was out to keep things simple/cheap. Most post-PS/2 EGA games would detect an MCGA card & just use VGA with EGA palette.
Replying to @lazygamereviews
So... Errrr.... Ummm... Do you feel lucky?

It's somewhat historically important as it was the first ever game distributed on a CD-ROM, as well as being a precursor to Myst. It's also supported by ScummVM, so these days you can play it on just about anything.

Watched Sorkin's latest, Molly's Game. It feels like he's trying to break away from his own tropes, and the results are mixed. For me the movie worked best in its later half, when Sorkin forgets to experiment, and characters start shouting at each other & deliver monologues.

Also this is very much a movie made by a first time movie director, and a long time writer. It favors dialogue and narration over anything else, and as a result mostly feels very plain.

Evil Dead seems to be the last thing that needed touching up, yet they did it. The post-stamp moon is gone. The bad jump cut is gone. Matte shifting in the stop motion sequence is gone. Also some of it was done rather poorly. It's very upsetting.
