As you may have already heard, the Catalina update for Mac OS is removing 32-bit support for all applications. This means if it doesn't run on 64-bit, it ain't gonna run at all. This means all Windows 32-bit games will not even run in Wine on Mac. Until now...

This is an awesome move because its a sign for when the day comes where Linux distributions no longer support 32-bit applications we will still be able to play our games in Wine.
