This article has a talk page!Apple's Macintosh launched in 1984 and was an instant success, thanks in no small part to the famous "1984" commercial which aired during the Super Bowl two days earlier. While initially a bit of a higher-end computer compared to the Apple II line, Apple began focusing on the Mac family more as time went on, even producing the IIe Card from 1991-95 (making Macs compatible with a large chunk of Apple II software) specifically to help educators transition from Apple II-based classrooms to Mac-based ones.
"Classic" refers to the pre-OS X era, spanning from 1984-2001 (up through Mac OS 9). Here lie games from that dark period, fighters of a desperate battle for relevance with an audience more concerned with Quark than Quake.
