Old Mac Games Archive

Classic Mac Operating Systems such as System 6 and 7 are obsolete but have been made available for free via a download from Apple. The problem is, classic Macs like the Macintosh Plus have an 800K floppy drive. You can not read a 1.44 Meg floppy disk on most classic Macs, and a modern computer can not read or write to an old 800K floppy disk. The Spring Sale of 2021 is in full swing with hundreds of popular games on sale!

It is also fairly comprehensive. That is, the 1st 8 characters in front of each ROM name represents the ROM for that model of Mac. If you have a Mac not included in the above list and would like to add its ROM here, you would need to check against these codes to see if it matches any of the above. Instructions for how to do this are given in the earlier request forum thread, linked above. It is likely tho' as in the case of Performa Macintosh's, their equivalent Mac models will find a matching hex value listed above (meaning they are the same).
