How to play Astaroth: The Angel of Death on Mac
Game summary
You must guide Ozymandias through the catacombs of Astaroth's domain. To aid you in your quest you can pick up nine different mind powers, which act as powerups. These powerups include levitation - allowing you to float, Pyrokinetics - ability to create fire with your mind, and shape shifting.
The game is in the platform style and you must jump and duck the various obstacles you encounter. The monsters you will meet include giant scorpions, beholders and fire elementals.
You will have to defeat Astaroth's 3 guardians of the soul along the way, firstly a sphinx, secondly a 3 headed hydra and finally a marlith demon. Once you have defeated the guardians you will have to face Astaroth herself in a battle of the minds using the powerups you have collected.

Play Astaroth: The Angel of Death on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Astaroth: The Angel of Death 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).
