Pete, not straight off the bat. You'll have to install a program that either installs Windows or a program that can read Windows Apps on the Mac. I recommend CrossOver:

Edit: It may not work on CrossOver - I just tried it using Wine on my Linux computer and it was not happy with the game at all! LOL

That reminds me of happy days spent playing Amiga.

I bought it after Amiga Power gave it rave reviews.

1993 if I remember rightly?!

What a game!

(I am getting old)

Monkey Island 1 and 2 - classics!

Also recommended from that era if you like your strategy games:-

Mega Lo Mania
Cannon Fodder
Settlers
Celtic Legends
K240

Tiny,

If you want Monkey Island Download the Scumm VM emulator its a very very simple program to use (unlike most emulators) and on the ScummVM website you can also download Monkey Island its all set to run on windows so no faffing.

Played it a while back it took me back about 17 years when the plinky plonky music started. Guybrush Threepwood!

There are a few other games you can download off the same site. Beneath a Steel Sky is a must if you havent played it?

I really want to get my hands on the Indy series (especially Fate of Atlantis which I never completed as the disc corrupted)

Its all freeware too which is nice!
