Hi there,
can we please collect PC/Mac Hybrid games.
I could not find a list and there must be a lot of hybrid games out there.

Beginning for about 25 years Blizzard always made hybrid PC/Mac releases. But there are perhaps a lot more of these.

That's going to be a long list I think.
Weird that there isn't a list already, nothing on mobygames?
Could not find it at mobygames...

Some Maxis games for sure. I think my copies of SimTower and SimCity 2000 SE at least work on both PC & Mac. Don't have the media handy to check though.
Other than Blizzard's games I know of these:
Prince of Persia 1+2 CD Collection
Tales of Monkey Island

You could get the list of mac cdrom games from there, cross check with those that were released on pc/dos/windows and look at every box scans to confirm...
From the games I own, You Don't Know Jack and The X-Files game both are hybrid for sure.
Found a couple more in my collection.
One is Jonny Quest Cover up at Roswell,
And the other is Connections Its a mind game.
Based on the tv series of the same name.
James Burke is in the game.
My copies of Myth I and II are hybrid CDs. Some copies of Close Combat are hybrid CDs, but mine is Windows-only. My copy of Myth 1 only mentions Windows on the box and system requirements, but it is still a hybrid.
The Simpsons Cartoon Studio and Virtual Springfield, and the King Of The Hill games are also hybrid discs.
My copy of The Dig from LucasArts Entertainment Company LLC is hybrid CD.
Win 3.1 : HP Omnibook 425 + Toshiba T2130CT
Win 9x : Dell Latitude Cpx H500GT + Dell GX1
Win XP64 : Asus P5B Xeon

Doom is what you want (c) MAZter
I distinctly remember all of the original Humongous Entertainment games were hybrid, from Spy Fox to Backyard Baseball.
edit: Also, very sincere thanks to MAZter for helping me remember a game I always wanted to find again but couldn't remember the name of.
