If it runs, it should be playable. But if it does CPU detection, it won't run.

Update guys:

It worked right out of the box (er, download from that GameAgent site.)

It's unplayable on the highest settings, but playable on lower settings.

Sorry for the late input, but it does run on slower Macs. I've got a 1.83GHz Core Duo with 2GB of RAM.

Of course I'm not running it at the highest settings.
