This is the safest way to run any Windows game on Mac, including Master of Orion III. Read on for easy to follow instructions on how to run Master of Orion III on your Mac within minutes.
Here's the best part: you only need to do the setup once. After that, you will be able to install games on your Mac just as easily as you can on a Windows machine.
