How to play 57° North on Mac
Game summary
When two cousins are shipwrecked on a remote island in Alaska, it’s up to you to help them survive, escape, and maybe even discover why there are so many security cameras out here in the middle of nowhere...
57° North tells a gripping story with hundreds of decisions and multiple endings that depend on the choices you make. For an even more immersive experience, it also works with the Merge Cube (https://mergevr.com/cube) to bring gorgeous illustrations to life in the palm of your hand. Just don't get too distracted looking at the scenery... we've heard there are bears on the island.

Play 57° North on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play 57° North on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.
Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.
Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).
57° North installation steps for Mac
Step 1
Go to Parallels.com and download the latest version of the software.

Step 3
When prompted, download and install Windows 10. The download is around 5.7GB. Make sure you give it all the permissions that it asks for.
Step 4
Once Windows is done installing, you are ready to go. All that’s left to do is install 57° North like you would on any PC.
