Game summary
Save the spy. Protect your base. Take the battle to the enemy. Destroy the nuclear threat. All in a day's work for an Army Ranger.
Your spy has stolen the secret plans to an Iranian nuclear weapons facility. Rescue him, protect your base, then take the fight to the enemy. Fight your way into the enemy base using all of the tools at your disposal including pistols, machine guns, shotguns, sniper rifles, grenades, helicopters, tanks, the mighty AC-130, night vision goggles, and more. Use the multi-directional multi-cover system to protect yourself along the way. Grab some of your buddies for 4-player co-op mode, or take on the enemy by yourself in single-player mode. Do you think you have what it takes to tackle the enemy in the edge-of-your-seat action shooter?

Play Heavy Fire: Shattered Spear on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Heavy Fire: Shattered Spear 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).
