Universal Binary (PPC/Intel)
PowerPC- or Intel-Mac with 800 MHz or more, 1 GHz recommended. MacOS X 10.3.9 or later
STK 0.7.3 is the best open source game! I play it on Mac OS X 10.3.9 Panther. There is a special download for Panther systems on SourceForge: http://supertuxkart.sourceforge.net/Downloads

My rating is for version 0.64. The new version 0.7 does not work on my Power Mac running OS X 10.3.9. It won't even start. Whatever was done to fix the bugs seems to have broken 10.3.9 and/or PPC compatibility.

awesome game. like a free Mario kart for the mac, only better. doesn't ever get boring, and very challenging.

Nice little game, fun for the family. We plop down some of the computer racers and race against them and each other. Harder than you might think to stay on the track, and the AI gives a good challenge. At least 4 stars if it was shareware--5 because it's free.
A hot new Mac game release for $6.99@ Macgamestore.com
