Baldur’s Gate 3 is a roleplaying game developed and published by Larian Studios. Based on Dungeons & Dragons Fifth Edition rules, Baldur’s Gate 3 is a very tactical experience. In combat, you will be required to keep track of initiative, positioning, and the environment, as well as carefully choose from hundreds of available actions. In a true RPG fashion, player agency is highly respected; you will have many opportunities to make decisions and see how they affect the world around you. Your companions will react to these decisions, and may leave if they disapprove. The Steam page for Baldur’s Gate 3 states that it’s available on both Windows and Mac; however, this is not entirely true. If you attempt to download the Mac version, you will discover that it’s the Early Access version, not the full release. The full version of the game is planned to release on Mac in September. If you want to play Baldur’s Gate 3 on Mac before that date, you will need to use a third-party tool; keep reading to explore your options.

Everspace 2 is a space combat game developed and published by a German studio called ROCKFISH Games. Though you may be trapped in the hostile environment of Demilitarized Zone of Cluster 34, the world around you is still a beautiful place filled with mystery and opportunity. Go forth and explore! Search for treasure, participate in races, complete quests, collect ships, figure out puzzles, and simply fly around having fun – but be prepared to defend your life in challenging combat. This lawless place is filled with warring factions, petty warlords, and even hostile aliens; a shootout is never off the table. If you want to stay alive, you will have to think on your feet, but it will also be necessary to prepare beforehand. A large variety of ship equipment can be purchased from various vendors; make use of them to gather a formidable arsenal. Different scenarios require different approaches, so there’s no such thing as “the best gun”. You should also consider recruiting others to help you on your journey; your ship’s abilities will benefit from their expertise. Though Everspace 2 is a great game, it lacks one crucial thing: a macOS version. Officially, it can be played only on Windows, Xbox Series X and S, and PS5. But you can still play Everspace 2 on Mac unofficially. Keep reading to learn more.

SIGNALIS is a survival horror game set in a dystopian future. Created by two people from Germany, Yuri Stern and Barbara Wittmann, this game tells a story of an android named Ester, who is stranded on a frozen planet. You, playing as Ester, will have to explore the abandoned structures that litter its surface, as well as your own crashed vessel. But remember to stay cautious – something’s not right down there. The feeling of dread, tension, and unease permeates the whole game, greatly contributing to the horror experience. Though Ester has a clear goal in mind – she’s searching for her lost partner – you will not always be able to single-mindedly focus on this task, distracted by pesky inconveniences such as immediate survival. Scavenging for resources and winning in combat will often be your priority in this atmospheric world. Don’t give up, though – when you finally manage to uncover the story of SINGALIS, you will find it quite beautiful. Haunting, disturbing, and simply sad, it is bound to make you shed at least a couple of tears. But to experience it all on Mac, you will need an external tool, as the game didn’t officially release on the platform. Learn how to play SIGNALIS on Mac with our handy guide.

The Expanse: A Telltale Series is an adventure game based on the popular TV show The Expanse. The game does not cover the same events as the show; instead, it serves as a prequel. To replicate the feel of a show, the game has an episodic structure. However, you will not have to wait very long for these episodes – a new one will release every two weeks. Five main episodes are planned in total; in addition, one bonus episode will be released as a DLC. All main episodes have the same protagonist, everyone’s favorite character Camina Drummer. You will be given the opportunity to explore the Asteroid Belt, salvage destroyed ships, fight pirates, and, of course, learn more about Drummer’s life. The DLC episode, meanwhile, will follow Chrisjen Avasarala; though we don’t know much about this episode just yet, it will likely focus on politics rather than action. This sci-fi adventure game can be played on PlayStation and Xbox consoles, as well as on Windows PC. However, you can also play The Expanse: A Telltale Series on Mac; read our guide to learn how to do it.
