Game summary

GunGirl2 is a freeware action platformer in the style of games like Metroid, Castlevania or Cave Story. But with blood… LOTS of blood. The undead start rising from their graves, humanity is lost and all hope has gone to hell – and that’s exactly the place, where you have to fix everything… Go on an epic adventure and explore a huge world with the nameless blonde chick GunGirl or her best friend GunDude (aka Marvin). On your quest you have to find more and more weapons, power-ups and special items that will give you access to new areas of the game. Talk with survivors of the apocalypse and discover the hidden secret behind what’s going on. On your journey there are thousands of zombies and other monstrosities that will continuously keep you on your toes! But when you thought nothing could get worse anymore, you find that glowing red door at the end of that dark pit and find yourself lost in the very depths of hell…

Play GunGirl 2 on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play GunGirl 2 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).
