Game summary
Play Forts on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Forts 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).

🕹 Editor's notes
Forts is a creation of EarthWork Games and was released in 2017 and met with amazing success in the Indie gaming scene. The game was well received by gamers and has sold over one million copies.
Forts is a fun and action-packed strategy game that involves the construction of high-quality forts that can both defend and attack. Think of it like angry birds, but with more firepower, bigger explosives, stronger fortifications, and no birds.
The graphics are colorful and cartoonish, but it makes for a great look. The action is surprisingly fun, and the in-game physics is an absolute delight.
Plot:
Forts put players in a competition for world domination as they enter a world where oil reserves have become scarce. The game puts players in the perspective of the Eagle empire, which desperately needs to find a new oil motherload that can power the empire for at least another decade.
However, the Red Dragon Army and the Iron Bear Alliance are also fighting for the same resources and are bound to get in the way sooner or later. Players must now compete against their enemies in supercharged and strategic fort battles that often turn deadly. But as oil fields start to dry, the race for the motherload will only become more and more destructive. Who will come out on top?
Gameplay:
In Forts, players will have to start with just a few layers of wood and brick. However, slowly and eventually, these initial few boxes can be expanded into a mega fort armed with highly lethal plasma guns, missile launchers, and heavy explosives. Once players are armed to the teeth, they can make their move and attack the enemy fort nearby.
The game features fun battle scenes as mega forts duke it out and throw everything they have at each other. The shootout animations are cool to watch, and so are the explosives that shake the 2-D world space. There is also a multiplayer mode where players can form teams and fight each other in massive 4v4 battles!
