@lialexy I would recommend comparing the specs of your new MacBook Air with what the game requires. If everything meets the specs you should be good to download and enjoy!

Thank you so much for this great advise! I’m really terrible at all things technically but I was wondering how I would be able to check my specs?

To check your system specs, you should be able to select the Apple Icon in the top left > then about this MAC. Compare those with what the specs Above if your not sure you can always google what you have with what is needed to make sure it meets the requirements.

** Apple also has a guide over how to check here.
