Which file will run on a Mac?

Neither will at the moment, although you could use a Windows emulator. I'm hoping to upload a MacOS version soon once I get someone to compile it for me.

OK! I'll just put it at the end of my list and wait patiently for the MacOS version.

I've now uploaded the Mac version, although I'm led to believe it will run only on up-to-date MacOS v12 (which is called Monterey).

Thanks so much! Excited to play.

Can confirm it uses Monterey-only features and won’t run on older MacOS.

It was compiled for me by my wife's brother-in-law and this is indeed what he said. It wouldn't run on his wife's Mac.

No, it won't run for me. It is really bugging me that this game has so few ratings and I'd love to play it, but I have the mac I have and I don't mess with it, because I will screw things up if I try to change the OS.

I read somewhere that someone had got it running on a Mac using an emulator, but I can't find that post and can't remember what the emulator was.

I mentioned that I got it running under CrossOver/Wine on my Mac. That was using the Windows version. I couldn’t run the Mac version because my MacOS isn’t new enough.

I recommend downloading the free trial version of CrossOver for Mac to run it most easily. The free trial download is fully functional and works for 14 days. I bought a license years ago to play Windows IF games like this. So buying was well worth it for me. But the free trial may be enough for you to play this game :) It is a great game.
