Games like Berzerk on Mac
3 of the 4 modern alternatives to Berzerk (1980) run on Mac. The cheapest is Berzerk: Recharged at € 9,75. 2 are made by independent developers.
Mac support for classics is patchier than PC, and Apple's move away from 32-bit software broke a lot of older re-releases. What works well: games sold through Steam or GOG with native Apple Silicon builds, cross-platform open-source engine ports, and browser-based versions. Many remaining gaps can be closed with an emulator or a compatibility layer.
