Think different?

During roughly the late 1980s through to 2005 there was a dedicated Mac gaming scene with a lot of exclusives, enhanced ports of PC games and even some influential classics such as Bungie’s Marathon or going back even further, ICOM’s Shadowgate. These games are no longer playable on modern Mac computers, and as such, even though I've since moved on to using Linux as my primary OS, I still collect vintage Macintosh computers where I can for the purpose of playing retro games on original hardware. This page is made as a tribute for this long forgotten and buried sub culture of PC gaming, to share the unique personality and varied library of this poorly documented piece of gaming history very near and dear to my heart. All games reviewed will be played on original hardware with no emulation, using hardware from my growing PowerMac collection. Even the screenshots will be coming from original hardware using the 1999 screenshot software Snaps Pro2 by Ambrosia Software.

My current specs:

All my coverage so far of Mac games are here. Additionally, for transparency, I will state if I played a game as a kid or a not so you'll know how much bias I have in my critiques. Most of the Mac's library is new to me and I'm playing them for the first time for Radpage!
