Play Jack the Nipper II: In Coconut Capers on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Jack the Nipper II: In Coconut Capers 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.

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).
