I would like to add the below.
Macintosh games that support Roland MT32
The following games have sound/midi utilities in their folder with the appropriate drivers and they support Roland MT32. I have tested the most of them with success. Tested on Macintosh LC475, Performa 6116CD and Power Macintosh G3 Minitower. For older games like Hoyle Official Book of Games and Thexder is better to use an older computer.

Gabriel Knight

Macintosh games that support General Midi
The following games support also General Midi (they use the same Apple Midi drivers like Roland MT32). I have tested them with success with Roland Sound Canvas SC88 (SC55 map enabled) on my Performa 6116CD.

Macintosh games that run with Roland Sound Canvas via QuickTime

Doom II
Final Doom
Heretic
I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream

Thank you cheesestraws. You have been very helpful on the roland stuff for me. Now i have the Roland MT32 and Roland Sound Canvas SC55 connected with my Dos/Windows PC and the Roland Sound Canvas SC88 connected with my Macintosh Performa 6116CD. Everything work great.

Yesterday i found another game that uses Roland Sound Canvas via Quicktime:
Return of the Incredible Machine - Contraptions
I tested it with my Power Macintosh G3 Minitower. The game has 3 options for music: Digital, Midi and None. Sound canvas runs perfectly with the midi option.
