Another Nice game as been added to Porting Kit: Batman – The Teltales Series! The game runs quite nice on my M1 Apple Silicon Macbook Air and my 15″ Intel Macbook Pro 2019, with now and then some small laggs, not hindering the gameplay though. Made also a gameplay video (where the lagg is hardly noticeable). Think it’s also depending what scene you are. Anyway, I didn’t found any show stoppers so far 30 minutes in the game.

During an epic battle with a powerful necromancer, dreadful daemon named Samuel tricked you and dragged you to his dimension. There you were trapped and tortured. But like every typical daemon lord, he had a very twisted, sadistic sense of humour, so he decided to chain your soul to that of a Deathknight. Thus he cursed you to spend the rest of eternity bound to a creature you were fighting all you life. Now you must work together to escape your prison and find a way to break this curse!

Another Port has been added to Porting Kit. A new game from Goblinz Studio: Heros Hour for Mac. While exploring the overworld and developing your town and army are both turn-based, giving you time to think and plan out your next moves, in battles your units will do the best to fight for themselves in real time – all hundreds of them. Cast spells and give attack orders to swing the tide of battle – or just sit back and watch as your might unfolds. I tested the game on my M1 Apple Silicon Macbook Air without issues so far.

1. Download the Heros Hour “offline backup setup” file(s) into your download folder.
2. Always read the “notes” of the game description first for additional steps!

Game Description:
All is definitely not well in the world of Arkose. The islands are falling into chaos caused by ‘shadow madness’, a plague of unknown origin and dire consequence! Who can possibly help before it’s too late? The disease has no known cure and has no warning symptoms, making the result particularly fearsome. It turns its victims into hideous creatures that bare no resemblance to their former selves. You are the only chance that Arkose has.

Shadow Madness for Mac

On April 13, 2022   /   Game Port, GOG.com Games, Portingkit, RPG   /   Leave a comment

New Port has been added to Porting Kit: another golden oldie: Shadow Madness for Mac. With intricate battle scenarios involving magic, 6 heroes to choose from and many hours of engrossing gameplay, you can’t help but want to fight. Shadow Madness is a race against time and the deadliest enemy of all, the enemy.  I tested the game on my M1 Apple Silicon Macbook Air without issues so far. It plays the best (in my opinion) with full screen + “stretch” (and no “artwork”). Enjoy this classic!

1. Download the Shadow Madness “offline backup setup” file(s) into your download folder.
2. Always read the “notes” of the game description first for additional steps!
