Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A free, open-source Mac app lets users add Windows .exe files to a library and launch them from there.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-26 issue.

For: Mac users who want to run Windows apps or games
Worth noticing: Each installed app gets its own space, so installing or breaking one should not affect the others.

Field notes

Crosswire's page describes a library-based workflow: add a Windows executable, then launch it by name. It says installations stay separate and that the app checks for compatibility-layer updates at launch. The site also provides a release-by-release update list, including setup fixes, and links to the source for the current build. Its companion Goalkeeper app is presented as forthcoming, with men's and women's soccer coverage promised from launch.
