Based off of the 1992 movie of the same name, this game is the reimagined release of Bram Stoker's Dracula, originally released for the Nintendo Entertainment System. Although the basic story of the game remains true to the original release, this iteration features a first-person perspective instead of the side-scrolling gameplay of the original game.

Play Bram Stoker's Dracula on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Bram Stoker's Dracula 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).
