How to play Cascade on Mac

Game summary

Cascade was originally developed by Epyx, and initially slated for release only in Japan for the Mega Drive. Super Fighter Team acquired full copyright to this game and released it worldwide in 2015. Cascade is a dice-based puzzler set in outer space, where your skill will be judged by wacky aliens. The best of them have invested weeks of meticulous programming into the creation of mind-boggling puzzles meant to disgrace you in front of their mutants friends. And they'll be constantly at their console, updating the code on the fly to compensete for your skill! This challenging game will amuse you with its quirky aliens that welcome you with silly spoken lines such as, Oh no, a human! and May the dice be with you. It also features a competetive two player mode. Hey! It takes cunning and quick thinking to blast through each successive level of Cascade! Complete all seven levels and you will be welcomed to the planet Cascadia. But what awaits you there: Fame? Fortune? The game's production credits? Only one way to find out...

Play Cascade on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Cascade 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).

Cascade 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 Cascade like you would on any PC.
