Yes. Right-click the game's .exe file or shortcut, and select "Properties." Click the "Compatibility" tab, and select Windows 98 from the dropdown box. You can do this for both the game's installer, and the game file itself.

Is there a way for making PC games play on Apple computers?

Games will require a particular operating system to work. If the game is written for the Windows operating system then it will need Windows to be installed on the Mac for it to work. Specific Mac games are written for Mac OS X and will be labelled as such. That said it is possible to play some Windows games on a Mac without having Windows installed using CrossOver Games (See links below) which emulates the parts of Windows needed to play the game. This does not work for all games and may not work well for some games.

Why won't my windows 98 PC games play on windows 7?

You don't mention the game in question, or whether you've tried using compatibility mode to run the game. The reasons they don't run may be because the graphics support (directx) works in a different way with later versions of Windows. Windows 98 is a 16/32 bit operating system, Windows 7 is 32 or 64 bit. It may simply be that the Windows 7 computer is so much faster than the 98 machines the game would have been written for.
