Game summary
Heim is an indie puzzle adventure game inspired by Norse mythology. An unexpected visitor turns Ashyr's homelife upside down, bringing him into a mystical adventure that takes him to far-off places and different worlds. Use your wits and acquire magical abilities to regain your home!
Travel from world to world to discover ancient magicks sealed within runes: harnessing runic magic grants Ashyr various abilities, from seeing the memories of the past unfold before his very eyes, to moving objects without even touching them. Ashyr wields no weapons or armour, but overcomes obstacles with his magic flute. His adventure sees Ashyr sail the endless seas, discover the secrets of a shattered world, delve in the misty realm of the dead, and seek out the gods themselves.
Discover secrets, collect lore scrolls and arcane remnants, and solve varied, unique puzzles in the divine realms of Heim!

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