So you want to play REANIMAL on your Mac? Bad news first: there’s no macOS version. The latest adventure game from Tarsier Studios (the folks behind Little Nightmares) is Windows only. But don’t worry, there’s a solid way to play it on your Mac anyway. Enter CloudDeck .
Why REANIMAL Isn’t on Mac
It comes down to the usual reasons. Mac gaming is a smaller market, and most studios build for Windows first. REANIMAL uses DirectX, which doesn’t run on macOS natively. Apple uses its own graphics system called Metal, and porting between the two takes a lot of work. For a studio like Tarsier, it just doesn’t make financial sense to do that extra work when most of their audience is on Windows or consoles.
What is CloudDeck?
CloudDeck is a cloud gaming service that lets you play Windows games on pretty much any device. It works by running games on high-performance servers and streaming them to your screen. You can install and play nearly any Windows game from your Mac, tablet, phone, or TV. It has a console-like interface similar to SteamOS that makes managing your games easy.
How to Play REANIMAL with CloudDeck
Getting started is pretty simple:
- Create your CloudDeck account and pick a subscription.

- Install REANIMAL on your CloudDeck.
