Game summary

In a galaxy far far away, you are one of thousands of Cargo Commanders, facing ambushes and dangers as they scavenge abandoned containers for valuable cargo. Competing with the other commanders for leaderboard positions in various space sectors, you need to find enough cargo to earn you way back home! The main job of a Cargo Commander is to explore containers and collect as much cargo as possible. Upgrade your equipment to stay alive! Choose a name and get your unique sector to explore and share with your friends! Use your fistcannon to drill through hulls and platforms, to create shortcuts, change the battlefield or allow you to take a nice stroll through space into another container. Each sector has its own leaderboard. Challenge your friends and reach the top to claim the famed employee of the sector cap. Find the corpses of other players where they died in their vain attempts at out-performing you and rid them of their caps or ammo.

Play Cargo Commander on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Cargo Commander 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).

Cargo Commander 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 Cargo Commander like you would on any PC.
