Game summary

Pac-Guy: Resurrection is an action game and spoof of Pac-Man. The game itself is a "resurrection" of the original Pac-Guy that include the original 12 levels with an additional new level from which you must eat all of the pellets while avoiding Kan's attacks. You navigate a maze collecting pellets while avoiding enemies. Big pellets act as ammunition that you can fire at enemies to remove them from the level permanently. Once you collect all the pellets and find the exit (sometimes automatic), you proceed to the next level. Losing all of your lives will merely send you back to the previous stage.
First released: Dec 1996

Play Pac-Guy: Resurrection on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Pac-Guy: Resurrection 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).
