Windows | For 64-bit, use ResidualVM. | ||||
macOS (OS X) | After the initial Mac OS release, an OS X patch arrived in October 2001. In 2006, the game received Intel support - rather than making it a universal binary, however; the developers decided to use Cider for this new app. As a result, the game is unplayable after 10.7 "Lion" due to incompatibilities. Therefore, modern, 64-bit versions of OS X require ResidualVM. |
