New to macs and just downloaded Indiana Jones and the fate of atlantis onto my macbook. The file is a unix executable file and I know if I change the extension I must somehow be able to play the game but I dont know what extension to use. Any help on how to play this game would be great.

Thanks :D

"UNIX executable"? what does that mean?

what is the extension on the file now?

normally, you can't just change an extention to make a file into something else.

Exactly.

If you want to run the game under the Mac OS, then you will simply need to have a version of the game designed for the Mac OS.
