How to play Honey Hunt on Mac

Game summary

Honey Hunt is a simple game where you guide your bee from open flower to flower, collecting nectar and returning it to your hive. Bee assassins, dragonflies, and spider webs are all out to get you. Dragonflies fly around the screen. Bee assassins skip from flower to flower. Spider webs are static, but make navigating nearby very hazardous. From time to time, a bear wanders by. If the speech synthesizer is attached, you'll hear it say, "Time to get the honey!" You must return to your hive to defend it. Simply being present in the hive is sufficient to ward off the bear.
First released: Feb 1983

Play Honey Hunt on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Honey Hunt 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).

Honey Hunt 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 Honey Hunt like you would on any PC.
