We recommend students with Mac computers that use the Intel chipset use VirtualBox, which is a free application.

Intel hardware is required (does not work on new M1 hardware).

We recommend having even more space available if you want to be able to comfortably solve challenges in the Forensics Base which requires you to work with large files.

At least 25 GB of disk space for the VM that Game provides.

300MB of available disk space for the application PLUS.

An x86 64-bit processor, most recent Intel or AMD processor will work.
