Age of empires II windows on mac?

Hey guys,

I bought Age of Empires II: Gold Edition a few days ago.
But I did a huge rookie mistake.

ITS FOR WINDOWS!

Is there any way, I can install this game?
It was released in 2000 or something, its not recent, so it doesn't need any specific graphics card or anything.

Thank you!

I used to have that game, still love it! I play it by using parallels desktop as it doesn't use all that much resources so can run really well in a virtualised environment. If you have a windows disk use bootcamp or some sort of VM software like parallels or vmware. From the looks of it Wine just doesn't seem to be able to handle it.

or virtual box (its free, but you still need windows). there is a mac version of the game, but it is very difficult to find.

What is a virtualised environment?
