How to play Diox on Mac

Game summary

Diox is a first and third person RPG shooter set in the near future. The earth has been altered by a dramatic climate change. Sea levels have risen, making the air too toxic to breathe and the water unsafe to venture into. In order to survive in this environment, you will need to acquire or craft tools, build shelter, and learn skills. Diox is about exploration, scavenging, construction, crafting, and survival. Unlike many survival games that force a predefined path to acquire items with limited uses, Diox allows players to craft a wide variety of basic and complex items from prefabricated parts commonly found in and around the cities that have been left in ruin. Players have the freedom to find different ways to accomplish the same task, whether it is building, crafting, or combat. There are many different paths to achieve the same end. Through character progression and customization, exploring, and crafting, there are endless possibilities for developing a powerful character.

Play Diox on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Diox 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).

Diox 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 Diox like you would on any PC.
