How to play Frogger Returns on Mac
Platforms | Portable console |
Game summary
Based on the timeless arcade game, Frogger Returns delivers the addictive dodge-and-run gameplay fans know and love for a new generation. Players are thrown back into the hustle and bustle of city life to guide their amphibious friend, Frogger, from the city back to his home marsh. Frogger Returns stays true to the classic arcade gameplay style, but is enhanced with improved graphics, a new camera angle, and new levels. Streets, sewers, subways, and numerous other obstacles and enemies are in play - all for the sake of keeping Frogger away from returning home! But Frogger isn't surrounded by just hurdles -- new power-ups including time reverse, invincibility and time freeze also aid Frogger in his travels.

Play Frogger Returns on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Frogger Returns 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).
