With a Windows emulator, perhaps. If you're proficient at C++ you could edit the source code to make it Mac-native, though.

What I meant is this:

No. You can't just play the game on a Mac. But if you use a Windows emulator (emulator = a program which tries to imitate a different system than the one it is running on, like Windows on Mac or SNES on PS2), you could possibly play it on a Mac. Depends on how well the emulator is at emulating Windows code on a Mac.

The game's source code is that what is used to make the game executable. It is made for Windows, but you can edit it so you could possibly make a Mac executable, making the game run on a Mac natively.

C++ is a programming language with which you can make computer programs.

If you didn't understand him at all, you probably do not possess the capacity to enable Dink to run on a Mac. Sorry, guy.

It's more like C if I recall correctly.
