How to play Dr. Slump on Mac
Game summary
This game is based on the 1997's TV series of the same name and was released only in Japan.
You control Arale and you explore her hometown Penguin Village (which was designed very nicely in this game). You can walk around and talk to all the people. They will give you clues on where to go and what to do. You go around finding items. There are some mini-games here and there as well. There are also the main dungeons in this game which should be completed. With Arale you can jump, kick, punch and do other moves. She has an energy bar and a limited number of lives.
First released: Apr 1999
Play Dr. Slump on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Dr. Slump 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).
Dr. Slump installation steps for Mac
