This may sound really stupid, but does the Macgamestore DLC, The Gathering Storm
work on PC? I saw that it is activated on Steam.

https://www.gamersgate.com/DLC-SID-MEIERS-CIV-VI-GATHERING-STORM-EU/sid-meier-s-civilization-vi-gathering-storm € 39.99
https://www.gamersgate.com/DLC-SID-MEIERS-CIV-VI-GATHERING-STORM-MAC/sid-meier-s-civilization-vi-gathering-storm-mac € 23.99

Given the price difference it could be the versions are not compatible.

For a slightly higher price you could to to the Wingamestore and take no chances.

Some info here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/GameDealsMeta/comments/bqh0k6/can_i_buy_a_game_from_macgamestore_and_play_on/

Seems like it should, since there isn't a Mac specific version page on Steam, but I won't swear to it. isthereanydeal.com indicated it was pc/Mac on their page for the game.

Further digging showed multiple comments along the lines of "a Steam key is a Steam key, unless there is a specific Mac edition listed on Steam", like this one:

Yes and just bought this and something else with no issue...immediate keys.  I believe in UBISoft lists them as an approved seller of their products so think legit.  I realize UBISoft does not make this game, but big seller who must think OK for them to sell stuff.

^Voidu's Sid Meier's Civilization VI: Gathering Storm also has "ROW" in the title (Sid Meier's Civilization VI: Gathering Storm - ROW).  Whats does that mean?  "Rest of World"? ???  will it work in USA?

Yes.  Legitimate store.  I have been using the site since 2017 without any issues but I live in the EU.
They are based in The Netherlands (Europe) so check the notices (e.g. NOTICE: THIS GAME CAN BE ONLY ACTIVATED IN EUROPE, THE MIDDLE EAST AND AFRICA)
But I believe Gathering Storm only requires Steam activation.

Yes, exactly what it means and does work for USA.  I have used ROW versions on many different Steam games in the past, including this one.

You didn't spend $33 !  You just saved over $100 waiting for this sale  O0.
Now go and spend the extra $100 you have on something else  >:D.

You must live in one of the states where they round up the dollar amount. Can't help you there. I live in the state of Misery and having said that, they don't charge more because they feel sorry for me.    ;)
