This video takes you through using SteamCMD via Terminal to download Windows-only game files from a Steam account on your Mac. Once you have them on your Mac computer, you can attempt to use a virtual drive app launching application (such as Wine, PlayOnMac, etc.) to see if the game will function on your computer as intended.

NOTE: This does not guarantee that the game will run, only that you will get the Windows-only game files which Steam typically prevents you from even being able to download within the normal OS X Steam UI!

Also, here is another quick tutorial I've made on how to get Among Us game files to run using PlayOnMac once you have downloaded the files to your computer:
