How to play Lupin III on Mac
Game summary
You play Lupin, a character who is trying to get money for his sweetheart. You try to take up to two of the six bags from the top and get them to the bottom without getting caught by an enemy. If an enemy gets too close or you are surrounded you can teleport, but there is no telling where you will end up -- you could end up in a worse spot than the one you escaped from!
After you have gotten all six money bags, you go to meet your sweetheart, but she tells you to get her more money and you proceed to the next level. If you lose all your lives you will be shown being dragged off to jail.
First released: Dec 1980
Play Lupin III on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Lupin III 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).
Lupin III 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 Lupin III like you would on any PC.
