Game summary

FAR NORTH SURVIVAL is an open-world survival game set in the unique setting of a vast ice-bound area beyond the Arctic Circle. Left alone in the ice desert, trying to survive with a little equipment you have, as a company having only faithful sled dogs, the player is set on a journey that will change both body and soul. You will have to build shelter, fix your equipment, and hunt for food, using both modern rifles and traditional Inuit hunting tools. The biggest enemy is not hunger though, it’s the weather. You will need to keep yourself warm and healthy, but even more importantly, you will need to take care of your sled dogs, keeping them fit and eaten.

Play Far North Survival on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Far North Survival 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).
