I got an old game set up for system 7.5 and my 10.6.8 wont run it.  Is there a download of the older systems that would allow me to play this game?

Any ideas on how to get this old game working on the newer model computer?  The message I get is that it wont run it "because Classic environment is no longer supported".

You could look into Sheepshaver which supports older OS versions but I hear can be very tricky to install.  you may also find that a game will not work on it because games often want to control the hardware directly and an OS7 game will have absolutely no idea how to run your computer.  Frequently it is recommended you just buy an old Mac capable of running OS7.
Even if you had a Classic-capable computer it is still quite possible it would not run an OS7 game. I found many of my OS7 games stopped working even when I ran a computer actually booted to OS9.
Which game is this?  Some old favorites are being re-released for OSX, e.g. Solarian.
By the way, it would be better to post this in the correct forum ((probably Snow Leopard) since this forum is intended for questions about how to use this web site.
