How to play Antarctica Condition I on Mac

Game summary

Play as a climate and geology researcher on a mission at the distant continent of Antarctica, with the goal of finding meteorites on the coldest, driest continent on Earth with its unpredictable weather. Built using the real-life satellite imagery courtesy of NASA, the game not only allows you to experience the exploration as Sir Scott did it back in 1912 — with a tent and a sled, but also with the help of: the Bv206, the iconic Swedish all-terrain vehicle; a DN-class iceboat, capable of sailing faster than the wind; and K-MAX, a twin-rotor cargo synchropter. Survive the condition 1 weather, when you cannot see further than 100 feet, ride along the glaciers and on blue ice, and explore the magnificent region of McMurdo Sound.

Play Antarctica Condition I on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Antarctica Condition I 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).
