Here, type in wine setup_escape_from_monkey_islandtm_1.1_\(20987\).exe (triple check version number - it might have changed by the time you read this) and wait. Type in cd ~/Downloads to get there in Terminal. Make sure you have the two backup installation files downloaded from GOG… Note: the bottom download links. When ready, run a clean-up for good measure - brew cleanup - and then install Wine: brew install wine Next you need XQuartz for window management. Type sudo xcodebuild -license - you may get an error message, and all that means is you’ve already accepted the license. Next type brew doctor to set everything up. That will install the package manager you need. Most everything here will be done through command line, so get ready for tears and to type in your password at regular intervals. Apparently not as much for everyone, but regardless, here are a few steps that might make your life a bit simpler if you want to get Escape running under macOS.įirst open Terminal. These days, times have changed, and after the Rum_Rogers commented that the GOG version of Escape works just fine in Wine, I decided to give it a try. Once upon a time, Wine - the Windows emulator that apparently is not an actual emulator - was an equal futile experience. Getting Escape from Monkey Island to run under Residual on a Mac is an exercise in frustration I wish on nobody.
