Game summary

After a nuclear explosion, the planet was covered with a huge wave of atomic energy, which wiped out almost all life from the face of the earth. From the land that we knew there were only stones, sand and debris ... All the liquid on the planet has turned into alcohol. The only plants that remained and were able to more or less adapt to the new atmosphere were the mutated cacti, the last drinking liquid remained in them. Those few who miraculously survived were lucky enough to call it that, because now they have to hide from deadly sandstorms and crowds of zombies ...

Play First Day on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play First Day 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).

First Day 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 First Day like you would on any PC.
