How to play Imperium Galactica on Mac
Game summary
We are in the year 2300. The Galactic Empire, formed by the human species in the known universe, eventually split into numerous factions, seven alien races and two empires of renegade humans. One of the most dangerous, the Darglans threaten the coexistence and peace established between the various species. It is time to face the threat and stop the expansion. You start out as a young lieutenant and are given a series of missions to complete. You then advance to the next rank and are given more ships to control and more available commands, but you have more area of the universe to police and more colonies. This continues until you reach the rank of Grand Admiral, where you are able to view the whole map.
First released: Mar 1997
Play Imperium Galactica on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Imperium Galactica 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).
Imperium Galactica installation steps for Mac
Step 1
Go to Parallels.com and download the latest version of the software.

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 Imperium Galactica like you would on any PC.
