Game summary

In Blazing Sails you, your ship and crew have to battle other teams on a huge map of land and sea until one team survives. As a battle hardened pirate you have to fulfill different tasks on your ship like steering the ship, deploying the sails, repairing ship damage and firing the cannons to crush your enemy’s. You’ll also be forced to go on land to gather different resources, weapons and ammo. But be careful to not abandon ship completely! If your ship goes down, your team goes down with it.

Play Blazing Sails on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Blazing Sails 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).
