Mac compatibility
Can you play Big Walk on a Mac?
Short answer: There's a native Mac version on Steam — the easy route. The Windows version doesn't list a DirectX version, and nobody has run it with Grapple yet.
What we know
Steam ships a macOS build of Big Walk. Its Mac requirements list macOS 15, a Mac with Apple Silicon (M1 or newer) and 16 GB of memory, with an M3 or newer recommended. If your Mac meets those requirements, the native version is the better route — nothing is being translated.
The Windows version is what Grapple would run. Its requirements name GPUs but no DirectX version.
With no DirectX version published there is nothing for us to reason from, and we won't guess. Running it once would tell us more than any spec sheet.
