Gaming on a Mac is becoming better with time, thanks to Steam and the Mac App Store, but finding the best games is still more of a chore than it should be. I’ve already handled action games and strategy games for Mac owners, but that still leaves out role-playing, which is my favorite genre. Let’s see what is available for a computer running OS X. This indie cross-platform RPG takes an irreverent look at the genre. The main character, Deathspank, is your typical brawny action hero infused with a generous dose of irony. Don’t expect much in the way of character development or a story, but do expect lots of witty dialogue. Even if the comedic value of this game doesn’t tickle your fancy you’ll likely find something to love in the gameplay.

It’s typical action-RPG fare, but solidly executed and overlaid with colorful graphics. The light-hearted tone of the game makes this an easy title to jump in and play. I love this game. It’s essentially an old-school role-playing game that’s been built with modern graphics and production values. The combat replicates the excellent pause-based conflicts found in games old Infinity Engine RPGs like Baldur’s Gate and Icewind Dale.

Players who enjoy deep, cerebral encounters will find this title to be an excellent break from the fast pace of action-RPG. This is a Bioware title, so the story is one of the game’s strongest points. It’s not terribly unique – there’s a big threat and you have to save the world – but the details are strong.

Find Role Playing games for macOS like FARA, Pixel Dungeon, PIONEERS, The Blind Griffin, Garden Paws on itch.io, the indie game hosting marketplace. Adventure and role playing games have always been a part of computer games. They started as text-based adventures like the original Colossal Cave. Rogue introduced a graphical twist, and Wizardry pushed the boundaries even further during the salad days of the Apple II.

The non-player characters that can join you on your journey are awesome and the various villages and locations you visit have their own character. Another title strong on comedic value, Dungeons of Dredmor is an indie rogue-like that pits you against a dungeon of unspeakable horror and danger. Rather than getting all teary-eye about it, the game takes pleasure in your pain, offering humorous encounters that often end with vicious swiftness (and your character’s permanent death). As with all rogue-likes, Dungeons of Dredmor is not an easy game.

Difficulty is part of the genre. There’s a lot to learn and combat is often tilted against you in a way that seems unfair. If this sounds frustrating, this game isn’t for you – but those who enjoy such challenges will find Dungeons of Dredmor to be among the best rogue-likes for the Mac. Like Dragon Age: Origins, this Eschalon is homage to old-school RPGs. Unlike that title, Eschalon doesn’t try to update the genre to modern standards. Instead it offers a straight reproduction of such titles. This means there are a lot of character options, an epic story and tons of quests to complete.

Because this is an indie labor of love the graphics are not amazing, but the other side of that coin is the fact the game will play well on any modern MacBook. What the title lacks in production value it makes up with in charm. There’s a lot of attention to detail here including gobs of items, nasty dungeons and a day/night cycle that’s important to gameplay. The Lego series of games have taken the gaming world by storm, and for good reason. They’re pure family-friendly fun and feature mechanics that feel distinctly old-school yet also modern. Some would argue that they’re adventure games more than RPGs.

Point taken, but honestly, there’s simply not enough good RPGs for Mac to justify excluding this title. Lego Star Wars is just the tip of the iceberg. If you like this you can also buy Lego Harry Potter, Lego Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Lego Indiana Jones. They’re all fun games for the same reasons – great puzzles, entertaining (if not difficult) combat and unique graphics. Neverwinter Nights is the least critically acclaimed series to ever come from Bioware.

But a so-so Bioware game is still better than most, so Neverwinter Nights 2 is worth a look. The gameplay is best described as computerized dungeons-and-dragons lite. The D&D 3.5 rulest is used, but unlike some other games built with the same rules, Neverwinter Nights 2 does not feel strategic.
