You may also use an Apple IIGS emulator to run Apple II games - the Apple IIGS had a 95% compatibility with its 8-bits predecessor.ĪppleWin is very easy to use, the following video shows how to run the Oregon Trail, which comes with 2 disks. Linux users can use the wonderful LinApple. Mac users can choose between Virtual ][ (not free) and OpenEmulator (OpenSource). Which runs also the Apple II, II+ and IIe.
