Let me see...


AGS

 + I can a make a 256 color game or  12 millions of color,
 + Documentations are more complete than SCI
 + It's an engine to make point and click games
 + In the AGS forum, many knows how the AGS works
     They can help you for making your games,

 - It doesn't have a view editor.
 - You need a drawing programs to make views and background


SCI studio

  + It has a view editor and a drawing program enclosed with SCI studio
  + Uses original engine SCI
  -+? In SCI0x, drawing a background is the same way than making AGI background. You might like or not the
way to draw backgrounds in SCI0x

  - documentations look incomplete
  - In SCI forum, only few persons may help you, Brian,
    Eagon, Ch. Reichenbach...
  - SCi studio is buggy for win95, 98 systems
