How to play I.Q Remix+: Intelligent Qube on Mac

Game summary

The sequel to the challenging PSOne cult favorite Intelligent Qube, I.Q. REMIX + is a superior puzzle game that confronts players with a simple proposition: don't fall off their platform. The catch, of course, is that the grid-based platform that they inhabit is populated with constantly moving blocks that must be successfully navigated to avoid being pushed off. New features over the PlayStation original include updated graphics, improved special effects, and additional game modes such as simultaneous two-person play. Released exclusively in Japan.
First released: Mar 2000

Play I.Q Remix+: Intelligent Qube on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play I.Q Remix+: Intelligent Qube 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).
