How to play Ironfell on Mac
Game summary
Embark on an epic crusade across all of space and time in real time. From humble beginnings, you and your ponies can explore and conquer thousands of realms by land and by sea.
Collect resources, build an army, and crush those who dare challenge you (or just plant flowers and raise ponies).
In Ironfell you can can gather stockpiles of resources to gain an unfair advantage over your enemies. The longer you’ve been playing for, the more resources you have, the stronger you are. And you take that full advantage into battles set in a massive persistent world.
Start a new rogue-like game every day or build an impregnable fortress that nobody can destroy.
Play Ironfell on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Ironfell 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).
Ironfell 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 Ironfell like you would on any PC.
