Mounting a HFS CDROM on Catalina

Hi.

I've got the CD-ROM of some educational games (Adibou) published in 2005 and compatible with Mac OS 10.3 that I would like to install for my little one. I bought them 10 years ago for my older kids and they are very good games.

Unfortunately, the CD-ROM are in HFS so I cannot mount them on Mac OS Catalina.

I searched for several workarounds including hfsfuse and hfsutils but nothing is working.

It is very frustrating because I can open the CD-ROM easily on Windows.

Is there a workable solution ? Thanks.

No. The CDs are not usable nor will the games run under Catalina. You will need some old Apple hardware and OS to play games from 2005. Alternatively, you can look for emulation software that may enable you to run the old games on the newer hardware.

I figured that out. Hopefully it will work with emulation. Thanks.
