How to play Genesis Quest on Mac

Game summary

Genesis Quest is a classic action-adventure. You're born as a gladiator in a mystical ancient world. But all your battles seem senseless as there is no audience to watch them. Discover the secrets of this lost planet. Re-create the world by following the paths of the gods, or your own. Save the souls from the chaos. Liberate them or use them to increase your own power. But whatever you do, you will have to live with the consequences...

Play Genesis Quest on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Genesis Quest 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).

Genesis Quest 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 Genesis Quest like you would on any PC.
