Step by step

What happens after purchase

  1. Open the purchase email. Lemon Squeezy sends the IgniteX download and your licence key after checkout. Keep the key private.
  2. Install the Mac app. Open the DMG, drag IgniteX into Applications, and launch it. The app is notarized for macOS.
  3. Follow the guided setup. IgniteX prepares its compatibility engine, offers Rosetta 2 if it is missing, and downloads the Steam client directly from Valve. The initial Steam client is about 600 MB before its own updates.
  4. Activate when prompted. Paste the licence key from the purchase email. One key covers one active Mac. You can deactivate it and move it to another Mac later.
  5. Sign in to Steam and choose a game. Your Steam credentials go to Valve, not IgniteX. Install a supported game you own and press Play. Games and a Steam account are not included.
  6. Stop Steam inside IgniteX when finished. This closes the remaining Windows processes cleanly instead of leaving them running in the background.

If macOS asks for confirmation

On the first launch, macOS may ask you to confirm a downloaded app. Follow the prompt shown by macOS. If needed, open System Settings > Privacy & Security, find the IgniteX message, and choose Open Anyway. This is a one-time confirmation.

Time and free space

Allow roughly 10 GB for IgniteX, its engine, and the Steam client, plus storage for every game. Setup time depends on your connection and Steam updates. A normal first run can take several minutes.

Check compatibility first

No compatibility layer runs every Windows game. Anti-cheat, launchers, game updates, your Mac, and graphics settings can change the result. Use the 777-game catalog and nine recorded tests before buying.

If it does not work for you

IgniteX has a 14-day money-back guarantee. Contact support with your Mac model, macOS version, and the game. Applicable sales tax or VAT may be added by Lemon Squeezy at checkout.
