If the Mac version will not start, you can install the Windows version through Uncork: download Uncork, sign in to Steam and install Slay the Spire 2 from there (4 GB). We have not tested it ourselves.
The Windows version through Uncork needs a Mac with Apple Silicon (M1 or newer).
Slay the Spire 2 uses DirectX 12: Uncork renders it with D3DMetal.
The game uses Vulkan — we have tested very few of these in Uncork.
