How to play Hexion on Mac
Game summary
Originally made in 1990 by David Markley under the name of Hextris; Hexion is a game released in 1992 by Konami. Hexion is a puzzle game in the Tetris style; except instead of shapes made out of square blocks laid evenly on a flat surface, the pieces are shapes made out of hexagon blocks laid roughly on an uneven surface. The core goal is still the same; create a horizontal line without leaving gaps.
First released: Feb 1992
Play Hexion on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Hexion 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).
Hexion 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 Hexion like you would on any PC.
