Application won't open on my M1 Mac running Ventura. Just a dialog saying "The application “NR4TW” can’t be opened."

Ah yes, this is a known issue for Mac when running games built under Windows. You should change the permission flags on the executable, try to follow these instructions.

Open up a Terminal and navigate to your app folder:

cd <PATH_TO_YOUR_APP>/NR4TW.app/Contents/MacOS/

This folder contains the actual executable file which Windows apparently didn’t make executable. With the following command you should be able to give execution permissions on the file

chmod +x "No Rest for the Wicked"

Very cool, that did the trick. Can't wait to try it.

I also had to go into "Privacy & Security" in my System Settings, scroll to the bottom, and allow the application to be opened anyway.
