Playing Mac Games


Yeah, like the Subject says, I would like to be running a game for Mac on Linux. Specifically the game The 7th Guest. If this is unheard of, then could someone tell me if I there are dos binaries that game so's I can run it in DosBox?

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Mac-On-Linux is what you're looking for, but unfortunately, that can only be used if you're running Linux on a PPC (ie a mac). It doesn't have a CPU emulator, so you're probably not going to be able to use it. As far as the question about DOS binaries, sorry, no clue :|. Isn't that also an SNES game though?

Aw that's a shame. I did a search for "mac emulators" in google and that led me to a program called Basilisk II and also Basilisk/JIT which look like they might work. Of course, if they don't work out I can always just plug in and use that piece of poo 6200CD that the game came with (Urgh).
