While I understand and on some level commend Apple's dedication to requiring "apps" to keep current with platform technology (it's irresponsible to connect stuff to a network that doesn't have active security support), this is a good reminder that you should never buy games that you might care about from Apple because they all stop working eventually, with no compatibility layer, emulator, or shim that will help you get them running again https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/06/apple-details-the-end-of-intel-mac-support-and-a-phaseout-for-rosetta-2/
