My wonderful daughter gave me a MAC for Mother's Day and I'm running into problems finding games like Lost Horizon that I can download.
Can anyone give me some helpful tips?

I'm afraid adventure gaming is going to be a problem for you. Unfortunately, not very many of the familiar games are ported to the Mac OS. If you like casual games, Big Fish Games has a section dedicated to Macs.

You could always purchase a Windows operating system and install it in Parallels or Boot Camp. Maybe someone more familiar with Mac gaming has some better suggestions for you.

Thanks Draclvr, I was hoping for a different answer. I have Boot Camp and will have to save for
a Windows OS...Looks like I have to juice those tomatoes before I can enjoy a Bloody Mary!

Coladia has ported a few adventure games to Mac.

Note that they publish hidden object games as well as adventure games for Mac, so make sure what you're getting is an adventure if you don't want hidden object games.

There are also OS X versions of Alida

and Journeyman Project 3.

I'm glad to see Coladia has come down in their pricing. Initially, they were sky-high.

Start juicing those tomatoes, cassadaga! I just finished planting 120 tomatoes and 62 peppers and chilies. Time for a break!

Thanks Jenny100. I just checked coladia and they have a good amount of games that I haven't played before. There is enough variety to hold me until I add a Windows OS. 75% of my computer time is Adventure and 'Escape the Room' games. Thanks again.

Draclvr.. Wow! 120 tomato plants. I'm in Florida and already picking tomatoes and peppers from my 15 plants. Soon it will be too hot for new buds.
I also agree that great PC adventure game deals can be found around the net and will miss that for awhile.

Yes, I agree with Drac that you can use Boot Camp to put a windows OS on your mac. I did that when I first got my MacBook Pro but my family made me take windows out of my mac. Also you can use Virtual PC for mac, and you can have as many OS'es as you want on your mac, but unfortunately, VPC doesn't support 3D graphics - at least not yet.


Virtual PC for mac


Congrats on your new mac! Is it a MacBook, an Imac, or a MacPro (jut curious)?
