How to play Bloodwheels on Mac

Game summary

Originally intended to be released in 1994 during the commercial decline of the Commodore 64, Bloodwheels was unreleased until 2011 when it was included in the 'Shoot 'Em Up Destruction Set 2' package by Psytronik. In this game you control an armoured vehicle on a mission that takes you through an arid desert-scape, a war-torn town, over bridges, through an army base, through dense jungle and an evacuated city, and more. The game features some nicely detailed sprites, destructible scenery and can be played by one or two players. War has never been so much fun!
First released: Feb 2011

Play Bloodwheels on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Bloodwheels 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).

Bloodwheels installation steps for Mac

Step 1
Go to Parallels.com and download the latest version of the software.
Step 2
Follow the installation process and make sure you allow Parallels in your Mac’s security preferences (it will prompt you to do so).
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 Bloodwheels like you would on any PC.
