is there a mac version of this and lemmings out there or will i never be able to play them again

Do you mean Pac-man? The old school video arcade game?

If so, there's a couple different versions. Some free, some not.

I think you're out of luck on lemmings.

There were a couple of lemmings game available for the Mac in the old days. Don't know if they'll work on MacOS 9 or X, though. I probably have them on floppies - yeah, they're that old.

It's not a download link. It's a link to a search for Pacman on MacUpdate. When I click on it, I get a list of pac man apps to download...

Odd. I've tested the link with my windows machine and iBook. I get files each time. Not sure what the problem would be...

Found a link to a download site to a demo of the second Lemmings http://www.kidsdomain.com/down/mac/o...elemmings.html ... boy, now you have to find an old Mac to play that on. System requirements are System 6 or 7 on a monochrome or 256 color cable Mac. Man, too bad games nowadays didn't have requirements as small as that.

Leonard · May 16, 2003, 04:19 PM

Here's another page with a few downloads of Lemmings for the Mac. http://www.utahdesign.com/lemmings/downloads.html

Again, these probably require an old Mac. Maybe a 680x0 Mac emulator program might play them - is there such an emulator?

Jim Paradise · May 16, 2003, 05:04 PM

There was a great Pac Man game out there called PacMac. Great silly music and fun levels.... it'd be quite nice if that was Mac OS X-ified.

mac freak · May 16, 2003, 05:49 PM

Yeah, there's both a 68040 emulator and a 68000 emulator for Mac OS (9 or X) at www.emulation.net (great site, BTW, for any emulation fans!).

Has anyone tried running it in Classic? Or on a full OS 9.2 boot? Might work...

Mohammed Al-Sabah · May 17, 2003, 10:46 AM

hey all.. yes there is lemmings that i did play on OSX with clasic ... not sure where i got it from .. wish they would make a new version of that game i used to LOVE it!

good luck and if anything is found PLEASE post!

willed · May 18, 2003, 07:45 AM

The way I played Lemmings was to get a SNES emulator and the ROMs. Can't remember links apart from emulation.net to get you started.

At last I can drive myself mad with Pac Man, shame miss having a joystick tho !! Great link, thanks ctisevn.

Tuoder · Nov 6, 2006, 06:21 PM

This thread is ancient. I sincerly doubt that ctisevn even looks at these boards anymore.

Thats no problem, I was brought up to have manners which means saying thank you. And the point of these forums is to help you find answers to questions however old the forum might be. This one answered mine so whats the problem with being polite??

Well, more to the point, it is against the rules to resurrect ancient threads.

And in reply, why say thank you when you cannot be heard?
