Non-cinematic level "introductions" always play, even if you visited the area before. These include the readme note for the Lab and Blount/Ware-Blount split in Brain. Save file for Mirrors/Brain area attached.

To recreate this problem, just go to Brain, leave and then go back. The splitting of Blount and Ware-Blount should not be played the second time.

ScummVM build: 1.2.0 REV 52800 win32
Game version: Goblins 3, CD/DOS/v1.02 (English)

    Save game for the area Mirrors/Brain

    DrMcCoy, could be a regression after the video refactoring?

    No, since at least the split in The Brain isn't a video, but normal game sprites.
    Are you sure this doesn't also happen in the original?

    When I still had a computer that could run DOS I had version 1.03 on diskettes, in this version it did not happen, at least not the Lab notes where shown every time, Mirrors/Brain is a little more fuzzy but I am pretty sure that was a one time thing also. I sold the diskettes to replace them with a CD version (which is 1.02) as I no longer have a diskette reader. Could be a version difference of course... Hopefully someone that still owns a DOS machine can test this out properly.

    But you can it in dosbox. Could you please try it?

    Don't know that program, will read up on it and test around, I will report back in a few days.

    Sorry for not getting back until now, work is riding me hard and I haven't had much energy or time left to complete the testing.
    I have partially tested this in DosBox and the lab-notes repeat every time you enter the LAB, I have not had time left to check the BRAIN cut scene.

    From what is described in the previous comment, this seems to be a bug in the original, so perhaps this should be closed and moved to the wiki?
