How to play Nevermind on Mac

Game summary

For the more discerning and demanding game player Psygnosis brings you a refreshingly inventive game that will have you juggling your joystick and agonizing over its mind-muddling problems until the early hours of the morning. Nevermind features over 250 screens of stunning 3-D isometric graphics and arcade quality animated sprites. Each screen presents a different puzzle ranging in difficulty from the exceptionally easy to the mind-bogglingly difficult. Your task is to reconstruct a series of pictures by collecting scattered tiles and placing them in the right sequence. It's an apparently simple assignment on the surface, but don't be fooled. You will also have to cope with tile-pinching chess pieces, dissolving tiles and causeways, transporter tiles, and horrendously tight time limit. Nevermind is a unique combination of arcade action and mind numbing problem solving, and uses a clever blend of computer-generated and hand-crafted puzzles. Is your brain up to the most intriguing challenge of the decade? There is only one way to find out.
First released: Dec 1989

Play Nevermind on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Nevermind 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).

Nevermind 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 Nevermind like you would on any PC.
