This game was also released on OSX. I seem to recall that it came in a universal binary (both intel and PPC) but I'm having a very hard time tracking down information online. And the binary appears to be completely lost. This is one of the finest turn based strategy games of all time and an incredible design. It would be a damn shame if it was lost.

Does anyone have a way of tracking down information on the OSX-version?

The Mac version was available for purchase (and there was also a demo for download) from the archived developer site at 26 october 2007:

Some initial issues with the music was noted for the Mac version, not sure if they fixed that, but otherwise it seemed ok.

Note the FAQ page was not updated, it keeps saying 'coming soon' for the Mac version for several years as far as I checked, but the purchasing pages were live in 2007.
