I have pages about more than a hundred Macintosh games on this site. To avoid having one endless list, I have split them up according to the following categories:

Macintosh Games for Download

This is a list of Macintosh games you can download here from this website or (in some rare cases) from the author's homepage or another linked download page. Latest addition 2008-11-02.

Macintosh-First Games

This is a list of games that were originally developed on and for the Macintosh. About two third of them have never been available for any other platform, while others have become all-time classics regardless of platform. Latest addition 2008-11-02.

Black & White

Here I list only those games I'm convinced will display well on a compact Mac, not those that will run without color, but seem to require a 640×480 screen. I have either tested them on my Macintosh SE or have seen a sufficiently convincing screenshots. Latest addition 2008-08-15.

Color

These games will run on a 68030, sometimes less. They require only 640×480 and 256 colors at most. I have usually played them on my Performa 630, or my Macintosh IIcx, or both. Latest addition 2008-11-02.

PowerMac

The games in this category will usually run on any PowerMac, some of them I have played on my Performa 630, just with some restrictions. In most cases, they will be content with 256 colors and will require no more than System 7.5. As far as I know it, I have given the minimum system they will run on in this and the following categories. Latest addition 2008-06-19.

iMac

The demands of these games are less humble. Usually you will need a G3, at least thousands of colors at a high resolution, and at least OS 8.5. These are all recent ports of PC games, the release year of the original is listed in the rightmost column, if different.

OS X

Just bought a Mac Mini and looking for some games to play on it? Here are a few suggestions. With one exception they should all play on a standard Mac Mini of the first generation (256M RAM).
