I don't think old mac ( before mac os x) games get any recognition. I will start with pax imperia, it is pretty much the mac version of emperor of fading suns in terms of complexity and systems.
There Is alter windows versions but it loses most of its systems.
There are also glider pro, and a pretty good wolfenstein 3d port.
So what are some of your favorites?

I love the Mac version of Epyx Rogue, it's way ahead of its time. Shufflepuck Cafe is another good one, obviously mouse-oriented titles do well on the Macintosh.

never had a mac, but i liked escape velocity nova

Behold, the true original moviegame.

Didn't have a Mac, but I played this dope Centipede clone every day after school in 5th grade. The sound effects are still seared into my brain.

Robosport was an amazing game, some modern developer cloned it (Frozen Synapse) but the original just has much more soul.

They have all those shareware CDs on the Internet Archive.

Anyway I own quite a few good vintage Macs, some IIci's and IIcx's. A IIfx. Four or five SE/30s. But I'll admit to emulating titles on BasiliskII before bothing to boot up one of the Macs and install a game these days.

The 68K Mac Liberation Army people have an Appletalk network (over the Internet) going along with a large number of old-Mac friendly services. Hundreds of people are usually online at any given time.

One of the Rogue creators also made Orlando Poon's Toxic Ravine Clean-Up and Rescue Service, which is hard to explain but much more fun than it sounds.

What's that game where you drop that guy from a helicopter into a horse-drawn carriage?
