The game works fine with OSX 10.6.
The needed CarbonLib is provided with Rosetta methinks.
As expected, proccedings and screens are equal to those within Windows XP.
Gameplay is in English, Spanish and French.

SheepShaver likes to crash after running the Director MX start thingie, maybe the needed CarbonLib would cure that.

So far, this one made it in the 10 year old rule since Brighter Minds filed for bankruptcy in 2009. BTW, I don't know if this will run on Mac OS 8.6 - 9.1, nor on SheepShaver and Rosetta (on Intel Macs), so if anyone who has real hardware and/or a copy of SheepShaver to test this game on, go right ahead!

I think this should be between Mac OS 8.6 - 10.6.8 or Mac OS 9.0 - 10.6.8 because the official system requirements call for Mac OS 9.2.2 - 10.3.9! Mac OS X Tiger and Leopard were not introduced on the official system requirements because of the company's quality assurance and testing, but Tiger was released in 2005 and Leopard was released in 2007, and the company (Brighter Minds) left it out in their product packaging unedited because of that!

Anyways, this one is uploaded for preservation purposes because of Brighter Minds' bankruptcy in 2009.
