Replying to tag2015:
Can't reproduce, could you please try version 2.6.0 or a recent development version and see if the situation improved?
Currently ScummVM shows many Sierra games under SIERRA NO SERIES (King's Quest, LSL, PQ)
If I go to Game Options for e.g. PQ1, then OK without change, PQ1 is now in POLICE QUEST series.
Same with Kings Quest V → KINGS QUEST series, Zork. Goblins has no series at all.
Why is there no automatic matching into correct series?
Maybe not all old id entries were taken over with the introduction of the series?

It's not unusual for a game id to change between releases of scummvm (eg: from 'generic engine name' to 'actual game name'), so if you're keeping old scummvm.ini to test this, you'll probably get false positives of the reported bug.

I just re-checked and all the mentioned games have series attached in the latest icons pack.
Can't reproduce, could you please try version 2.6.0 or a recent development version and see if the situation improved?
