How to play Chicken Coop on Mac
Game summary
Chicken Coop is a Joust clone from Navarone.
In this game you take on the role of a chicken who leaves the "Chicken Hens" base. From there other chickens are released and you must come down from above to turn them into an egg. Once they are an egg you can capture the egg and a point is scored. If you take too long they will once again return to a chicken and will need to be defeated from above. As the levels progress more chickens are released from the base.
Don't be a chicken! Rule the roost!
First released: Feb 1986
Play Chicken Coop on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Chicken Coop 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).
Chicken Coop 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 Chicken Coop like you would on any PC.
