Games and a Mac

Tech (or anyone who takes pity on me)

Is there any chance that you could list the games playable on a mac??

My broadband is really slow and when I have finally connected to a game I get the message that you can only play through windows.

Only game I have found to play is Bookworm, I do enjoy it but variety is the spice of life doncha no??

Thanking you kindly

I'll flag this up to Tech - must be some way round this though, as Olivia is on a mac and she's addicted to Bejewelled... but I just tried to load it and couldn't. Maybe you have to download it? Will find out.

Thank you very much, I live this sad little life where no one will play games with me in RL (I like to win)

Hi, We've asked Zylom, the games provider, if they can give us a "mac" version of the page that shows only mac-playable games. I'm not sure they'll be able to do so, but it's probably worth asking...... I use a mac and have found quite a few that do work, but I can understand you might not want to wait for a game to download on dial-up just to see that you can't play it. We'll let you know what they come back with.

Count yourself bloody lucky that they don't work [addict]

Sadly Tech I can't blame the slowness on dial up, just living the furthest point possible from the exchange (or that is the excuse BT are sticking with)

If you have found quite a few that work, could you please share them with a deprived mother who should be looking after her children instead of contemplating game playing during the day
