How to play Flynn & Freckles on Mac

Game summary
Flynn, a young pirate, decides to begin a perilous quest in search for the most valuable of treasures: Captain Freckles’ sword. But, to his surprise, the sword is possessed by the old captain’s spirit. Now they’ll both have to face the dangers of the island and the curse that rests upon the treasure.
Flynn & Freckles is a third-person view, single player game with a great amount of exploration and combat. As Flynn we’ll need to deal with a series of platforms, puzzles and fight against loads of enemies.
F&F gives us the opportunity to enjoy, once again, a 3D platformer game, old school 90’s style, with a renewed artistic and technical approach, and all of it revolved around a fantastic pirate setting.

Play Flynn & Freckles on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Flynn & Freckles 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).
