How to play Caveman on Mac
Game summary
Caveman by Tomy / Grandstand
1982 Tabletop game, in which you play a caveman trying to steal dinosaur eggs without getting caught. This game features a large multi-coloured display, and two skill levels. This is the Gold version, also released in red.
This example of the game is in Excellent, fully tested condition,9/10. Includes instructions on base, and battery cover.
LED Electronic games dominated the toy industry between 1977 and 1983. They use light emitting diodes to create displays made of lights. Later LED games use vacuum formed displays, which allow detailed coloured sprites to be animated on-screen. Today handheld and tabletop games rank amongst the most valuable and collectible retro game formats.
Play Caveman on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Caveman 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).
Caveman installation steps for Mac
Step 1

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 Caveman like you would on any PC.
