Review Note:

It's playable on M1 Pro but with uneven framerate (probably due to being originally a 32-bit binary translated to 64-bit) via D3DMetal or DXMT, crashes with DXVK. It runs much better and stable via VMware Fusion.

Review Note:

It runs great via VMware Fusion, better than Crossover (probably due to being originally a 32-bit binary translated to 64-bit). Limit refresh rate to 60Hz and enable V-sync to avoid physics issues. For other optimizations check the pcgamingwiki page.
