Can not be installed from CD. However if it is installed already with the latest patches on another system such as 10.6, then simply copy and the paste the application file into 10.7. Seems to run fine on 10.7 this way.

This updater won't update the european version of the game. It's greyed out, and I can't choose it to update.

There are two ways I know for a fact will allow AOM to work on Lion.

If you had it installed on SL and you upgrade from SL to Lion, it will work.

If you clean install or bought a computer with Lion, you need to create a small SL partition (30GB should be enough). Boot up in SL, run the AOM installation. When it asks where you want to install the game, change the location to the Lion Applications folder. It will install as per normal. You can download the 2.0 update and install from SL and the 2.0.1 update can be run in SL or Lion, all cases, just locate the AOM app in the Lion Application folder.

It would appear Rosetta is something to do with installing these this app, nothing to do with running them.

It works in Snow Leopard, But Lion doesn't support AOM.

Perhapse , That reason is Rosetta Stone.

Doesn't install under Lion, but the 2.0.1 update works great under Lion (like some other games e.g. UT2004, Warcraft 3, American McGee's Alice, etc.).

maybe I should't put Alice down as an example as I know some people have problems with playing it under Lion but I haven't
