Well... This game is for PowerPC Macs and is not written for intel based Macs. The next question would be, are you are running Snow Leopard (10.6) or Lion (10.7).
If you are running Lion, the game will not run. You need Rosetta, which is PowerPC emulation, to run the game and is no longer supported in Lion. Rosetta allows an intel based Mac to run older PowerPC based mac games.
If you are running Snow Leopard, make sure you have Rosetta installed. If you have Rosetta on your Mac, it should run well. Mac Rumors has the game listed as running well under Rosetta on intel Macs HERE.
If you have Rosetta and are running anything but OSX Lion, this game should run. The error you are getting may be due to something else. You may need to reinstall the game. I have the game, maybe I will load it onto one of my intel Macs and try it out to see what happens. Just let me know which version of OSX you are running.
