How to play Oliver and Spike on Mac
| Platforms | Computer |
Game summary
The basic idea of the game is, that there are several versions of the same game world. We call these dimensions. These alternative worlds will have the same basic shape, but otherwise be very different with different physical laws.We follow Oliver, a boy with special abilities, and his faithful friend, the little dog Spike. Oliver was separated from his parents as a child and it\'s your task to uncover his past and future as you travel through the dimensions on the quest for answers. The game will feature innovative gameplay, where the player will get to explore alternate realities, where it\'s possible to manipulate, use and violate nature\'s laws to solve puzzles and overcome obstacles of more or less challenging difficulty levels.
Play Oliver and Spike on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Oliver and Spike 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).
