How to play Pix the Cat on Mac
Platforms | Platform, Computer |
Game summary
Pix the Cat features many different game modes including single and multiplayer modes, some changing the theme and aesthetic. Including Arcade, Nostalgia, Laboratory, and Arena modes, you'll play as Pix - who plays Pix - heading deeper and deeper into levels upon levels in a Snake-meets-Pac-Man digital world.
Enjoy a kinetic and stylized world within games where, in the arcade mode, your task is to liberate ducklings and trail them to the safe-zones without hitting the walls, getting stuck, or running into your feathered friends, gaining the highest score possible and comparing them on the leaderboards. Completing "achievements" opens up new game modes and unlocks fantastic artwork, hilarious announcer voices and your favorite tunes from the game's soundtrack! Among other surprising surprises...
Finally, Arena mode pits you against 3 friends in local multiplayer! With two players facing off on the same keyboard, connect additional controllers and blow your enemies to smithereens in epic battles of cats, ducks and eggs.

Play Pix the Cat on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Pix the Cat 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).
