Aim Lab, developed and published by Statespace, is not precisely a game (though some will consider it one). It is, first and foremost, a training tool designed to improve one’s skill at first person shooters. Although it can be played for fun, and includes competitive elements such as the leaderboard, that is not the primary attraction. Aim Lab includes a wide range of shooting exercises that are designed to train different FPS skills, such as the ability to quickly hit many different targets, the ability to track a moving target, and many others. But this is more than just a collection of exercises. Aim Lab analyzes your performance to identify your current abilities and determine your weakest skills. This information can be viewed on your dashboard, but Aim Lab will use it as well, giving you tailored exercises. Aim Lab is available on Windows, iOS, and Android. Of course, the mobile version is useless for Mac users, as aiming with a touchscreen is very different from aiming with a keyboard and a mouse (or a controller, perhaps). So if you want to play Aim Lab on Mac, you will have to run the Windows version. This can be accomplished in several ways; read the guide below to learn more.

Knights of Honor II: Sovereign is a grand strategy game developed by Black Sea Games. Set in the medieval period, the game features the European continent, North Africa, and certain parts of Asia. This is not coincidental: only areas known to medieval Europeans are present in the game. Unlike many games in the genre, Knights of Honor II: Sovereign is not turn-based. Everything in the game, including combat, takes place in real time. Thankfully, the designers made an attempt to streamline the game’s numerous systems, making them accessible and easy to understand. You wouldn’t have to stare at the screen for hours just to figure out what’s going on. But streamlining is not the same as simplifying. Though certainly made for players new to the genre, Knights of Honor II: Sovereign is not a shallow game. The game’s mechanics – be it combat, diplomacy, or economy – all have depth to them; there are certainly many cerebral decisions that need to be made. This game is a Windows exclusive, which is obviously disappointing if you’re using an Apple PC instead. But we have some good news for you, too. There are several ways to play Knights of Honor II: Sovereign on Mac even though the game doesn’t officially support this. Read the guide below to learn more.

POLYGON is a multiplayer shooter game developed and published by Redaster Studio. Focused on team deathmatch, the game features two teams of up to 16 players, meaning 32 players total. Having 32 simultaneous players is not as easy as just letting them all connect to a single server. To make sure everyone has a good experience, game maps have to be designed with this number in mind. POLYGON does not disappoint in that regard; the game’s expansive maps ensure that all players have space for tactical approaches and other maneuvers. This is especially important considering that tactics is a major part of the game. To succeed, you need to select the right weapon for the job and consider your selection of skills. Beyond tactics specific to this game, you would also do well to follow more universal tactical laws: take cover whenever possible, always prefer having the high ground, and so on. Officially, POLYGON is available only on Microsoft Windows. Not surprising, especially considering that it’s an indie game that’s still in development. Nonetheless, this is disappointing… but it doesn’t have to be. By following the guide below, you will be able to play POLYGON on Mac, even though the platform is not supported officially.

Speed Limit is a fast-paced action game developed by Gamechuck. It is hard to say which genre the game belongs to; it does not stick to a single gameplay formula. Indeed, that is the part of the attraction. Done in a retro art style and intentionally imitating arcade games of the past, Speed Limit transitions between several game genres popular during that era. It starts as a side-scrolling shooter, becomes a top-down driving game after that, and switches genres several times after that as well. We shouldn’t spoil too much; after all, quickly thinking and adapting to the situation at hand is a part of the game. A part that you wouldn’t experience as well if you knew what lies ahead. So go ahead and experience the game for yourself. The game will throw different challenges at you, all of them requiring you to both think fast and act fast. High intensity is one of the few constants in this game, with the aesthetic being another. Speed Limit officially supports these platforms: PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and Microsoft Windows. OS X is not supported, but that doesn’t mean you should give up on the game. Reading the guide below will allow you to play Speed Limit on Mac despite the lack of official support.

PC Building Simulator is a simulation game developed by Claudiu Kiss and The Irregular Corporation. The name of the game is completely accurate and to the point: this game is focused on simulating the experience of building personal computers. PC Building Simulator features two main game modes (and one tutorial mode). The first one is the Career mode. In this mode, the player is put in charge of a PC repair and building business. At first, you will only handle simple tasks such as removing viruses and simple hardware repair, but soon, you will be building custom computers for many demanding clients. Sleek and noiseless computers? Water-cooled RGB monstrosities? You will build them all. If you’re not happy working on computers your clients want, and would rather build your own dream PC, the game provides such an option as well. In the Free Build mode, there are no orders, no monetary constrains, and you have access to all parts so that you can build whatever you want. PC Building Simulator is available on Windows, PS4, Xbox One, and Switch. There’s no Mac version, but you can play PC Building Simulator on Mac anyway by following the guide below.

Alien Swarm: Reactive Drop is a top-down shooter game developed by Reactive Drop Team. However, it is worth noting that Reactive Drop is merely an expansion pack for Alien Swarm. The base game, meanwhile, was developed by no one other than Valve themselves. This, combined with the fact that both the game and the expansion are completely free on Steam, have earned the game its “overwhelmingly positive” rating. The main focus of Alien Swarm is its co-op mode, where four players form a tactical squad to fight against alien bug-like creatures. But Reactive Drop adds other game modes as well. Several PvP modes were added, such as your usual deathmatch, team deathmatch and instagib. A singleplayer mode is available as well. Although you have to act as a part of a squad in this game, there’s plenty of room for individuality as well. The players have four different character classes available to them, and can choose their gear and weapons. The game’s already extensive arsenal has grown even larger with Reactive Drop; there’s plenty to choose from. Unfortunately, this is a Windows-only game. Don’t be disappointed, though; it is still possible to play Alien Swarm: Reactive Drop on Mac. How? Read the guide below and find out.
