How to play Kid Tripp on Mac

Game summary

The much-loved iOS game Kid Tripp by Michael Burns is finally making its way to the Nintendo 3DS eShop. Miles has crash landed on a mysterious island and the local inhabitants are not happy about it. Run, jump, stomp and smash your way through 20 levels of nonstop frantic action to escape from the island as fast as you can. Lovingly converted by hand from the iOS source, the 3DS version is a pixel-perfect recreation of the original game with all the original levels and gameplay elements. A new control scheme makes the game more accessible to casual players but the original two-button hardcore controls are available for those who want more of a challenge.
First released: Jun 2013

Play Kid Tripp on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Kid Tripp 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).
