Healing items in dungeons? Hope it means you can finally get this curse lifted. Really sucked spending all that time developing a character, only to get cursed by a mummy and turning into a very slowly walking zombie.
Is it out for Mac yet?
Stream says it's "playable" on Steam OS, which might mean it works under Wine. So, you could try running the windows version in https://github.com/Whisky-App/Whisky . It often works wonders, even on ARM Macs.
You can also try to set up a Linux vm with hardware-accelerated graphics with UTM or VmWare or Parallels, but I'm less familiar with this route for games. It might be hard since you need either x64 Linux or Rosetta, and hardware acceleration at the same time. (It might be easier if you have an Intel Mac)

I tried an Ubuntu x86 VM with UTM on a M1 MacBook Pro, but the results was extremely slow.
I think Intel Macs will give a better result.

Yeah, Whisky is probably the better path.
Looks like it’s just Windows and Linux at the moment.

I asked for a status on the forums[1] but the it doesn’t look too positive. From a September 2024 steam post:
> After investigating the programming requirements, we have decided it’s best to cancel the Mac build for the time being. Porting the game over to Mac would take significant time and resources away from improvements to Fortress and Adventure Mode that simply don’t make sense for us to dedicate right now, given the low number of Mac-only users. There is a significant amount of work that would be required for maintaining a Mac build that would delay all patches in the future, and as we know, you all want patches faster. We aren’t saying it will -never- happen but do not count on it any time soon. We are very sorry to all the Mac users who have been waiting patiently for an update on this.

I’ve been playing it on Mac with crossover. Works great
I haven’t tried with whiskey yet, but noticed it was featured in the GeForce Now app
