OS 10.5 - Running old Mac games in "Classic" mode

Hey all. New to the forums and I was hoping someone could shed some light on a question I have. I have a game that was put out in 1997 that says it works with 7.1 and above. On various game websites it says it will run on OS X in "Classic" mode. So when I load the game and try to play it, my computer says that classic mode does not work on Leopard. Is there any ideas that anyone has to run it in classic mode. I am confused on why it would run in classic mode on tiger but not leopard. Thanks.

Just like it says. Apple has put an end to classic mode with the release of Leopard.
