How to play Gum Droppers on Mac
| Platforms | Computer |
Game summary
People want sweets so much that the Goody Gumdrop Factory can't keep up. They need your help.
The gumdrop machine spits out gumdrops onto the top conveyor. You must gather three at a time and place them on the pile to make three or more of the same color in a row, vertically or horizontally. Pay particular attention to the color of the candy jars on the bottom right. You must fill both jars up to complete the level. If you don't gather a gumdrop from the top conveyor before it gets to the end, it will fall to the bottom conveyor. If the bottom conveyor fills, a new row of gumdrops will be created. If the gumdrop pile gets to high, the game is over.

Play Gum Droppers on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Gum Droppers 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).
Gum Droppers 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 Gum Droppers like you would on any PC.
